Back to Physics 212, 2018: Computational Modeling.

In today's lecture, we will do three things:

1. introduce and study random walks following a script attached to the module.
2. Your Work: Simulate a sum of N draws from some probability distribution (binary, exponential, multinomial,...). Histogram the sum for different N. How does the histogram look like as N increases?
3. Introducing the projects.
