## What it is
A succinct mathematical reference cookbook covering probability theory and statistics, written in LaTeX and compiled to a PDF. It distills key formulas and distribution plots into a compact reference rather than providing elaborate explanations.

## Use cases
- quickly look up a probability distribution formula
- refresh statistics concepts before an exam
- find the variance or moment-generating function of a distribution
- keep a compact statistics reference on hand while doing data analysis
- review probability theory essentials without reading a full textbook

## When to choose
- you need a concise, formula-focused reference for probability and statistics
- you want a printable cheatsheet of distributions and their properties
- you prefer distilled mathematical facts over lengthy explanations

## When to avoid
- you need step-by-step tutorials or worked examples
- you want interactive learning tools or exercises
- you need a commercial-use-licensed resource, since it is CC BY-NC-SA

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: maintenance
- function: documentation, math
- domain: mathematics, education, tutorials
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: cheatsheet, statistics, probability, reference, latex
