Pages: 233 to 265 (Chebyshev not included)
Pages 267 to 271 will not be covered during the lectures; self reading is required here.
• Chaper 9: Bernouilli distribution and Binomial distribution.
Pages: 287 to 296 (hypergeometric distribution not included).

• Chapter 10: section 10.1 and 10.3.

• Chapter 11, everything except p346-349 (this bit is about conditional distributions) and on p357 the part about the Poisson-distributions.
