In the third lecture, we finished presenting the axioms of probability and demonstrated some corollaries of these axioms. We ended the lecture with a collaborative quiz in which we practiced proving the equality of two sets. It is hoped that the peer grading of this quiz has helped you better understand how to present your answer to increase the number of points you would get, even if you were missing some details of the proof.

Note that the first homework assignment is due this coming Monday.

Action items for students (to be completed before next lecture)
