Thanks for posting this. The Jupyter notebooks (and the fact Github has built-in support for them) really help illustrating the concepts.

The book I've used so far to study is "Probability and Statistics: The Science of Uncertainty", by Michael J. Evans and Jeffrey S. Rosenthal. This book is not being published anymore and is free in PDF form.

May also want to take a look at: "Introduction to Statistics and Probability using R"

https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/IPSUR/vignettes/IPSU...

R has builtin functions for most of your needs. You can get a lot done with very few code.
