Abstract
Teaching probabilistic methods (PM) to undergraduate electrical engineering students is often difficult because of the increased conceptual level of the material compared to their previous learning experiences. Here the authors describe, however, that with the help of software tools like MATLAB, an instructor can unravel the mysteries of probability theory and its marvellous array of applications.
