You can begin to visualize a Markov Chain as a random process bouncing between different states.Here is a basic but classic example of what a Markov chain can actually The theory of Markov chains, although a special case of Markov processes, is here developed for its own sake and presented on its own merits.In general, the hypothesis of a denumerable state space, which is the defining hypothesis of what we call a "chain" here, generates more clear-cut questions and demands more precise and definitive an :// This is not a book on Markov Chains, but a collection of mathematical puzzles that I recommend.Many of the puzzles are based in probability. 675.9 1067.1 879.6 844.9 768.5 844.9 839.1 625 782.4 864.6 849.5 1162 849.5 849.5 Markov chains, by J.
