Title：

This crash course will cover concentration inequalities, a fundamental tool in data science, that are advanced versions of statementslike "A standard Gaussian has <5% chance of deviating more than two standard deviations from its mean." These tools are frequently co-designed with algorithms, which can present a steep learning curve for newcomers.
