Towards understanding the central limit theorem by learning Python basics
Abstract
We report on a first experiment about an email based course that connects learning Python basics and introductory probability theory. In the experiment 7 short sequences of homework were sent out to prospective mathematics teachers who did not have any programming background formerly, but already had some minor knowledge on probability theory. The experiment was about to decide if learning basics of programming can promote understanding main concepts of probability theory.
