Probability Distribution Simulator
A detailed view of the project
Overview
The Probability Distribution Simulator is an interactive Shiny app designed to help users explore and visualize three key probability distributions: Normal, Uniform, and Binomial. It provides an engaging way to understand statistical concepts by allowing users to modify distribution parameters and see real-time updates in graphical representations.
This project highlights expertise in interactive application development, data visualization, and statistical computing. With real-time feedback and user-friendly controls, the Probability Distribution Simulator serves as a valuable tool for students, researchers, and professionals in the field of statistics.
