Probability Concepts and Calculations

The video tutorial introduces basic probability concepts using fair coins and dice, explaining the idea of equally likely events. It then transitions to discussing unfair coins, where events are not equally likely, and introduces the frequentist approach to probability. The tutorial demonstrates how to calculate probabilities for independent events, such as multiple coin flips, and provides examples of both simple and complex probability calculations.
