Markov Chains

Created by Kyle Siegrist of the University of Alabama-Huntsville, this is an online, interactive lesson on Markov chains. The author provides examples, exercises, and applets to introduce the subject. More specifically, the lesson covers: recurrence, transience, periodicity, time reversal, as well as invariant and limiting distributions. In addition, the author has provided links to external resources for further research. Overall, this is a great resource for those interested in this statistical process. It provides basic examples to introduce the topic, but also provides a more in-depth study to further challenge students.
