Think Bayes: Bayesian Statistics Made Simple

Think Bayes: Bayesian Statistics Made Simple is an introduction to Bayesian statistics using computational methods. This book uses Python code instead of math, and discrete approximations instead of continuous mathematics. As a result, what would be an integral in a math book becomes a summation, and most operations on probability distributions are simple loops.
