Complete solutions of some problems are given. Answers only are given for some other problems. For still others, only hints or partial solutions are given. Asterisks in "A Modern Approach to Probability Theory" by Fristedt and Gray identify the problems that are treated in these supplements.
You may download these in either PDF format or in Postscript format.
PDF is a format read by the Adobe Acrobat Reader, which is available for almost all platforms. It allows on-screen viewing of the document, as well as postscript-quality printing. You may get the viewer by clicking on this icon:

PS is Postscript Format, used mainly to download directly to a laser printer. It is a text file, so you should help your WWW browser to save it as a text file (it may get confused if it is not properly configured). There are many utilities that will send this .ps file to a laser printer, like Microsoft Word, BBEdit, ls. If you are not sure about these utilities, we suggest you use the PDF file format instead. PS files are screen-viewable via a program called GhostScript, available on many platforms.
DVI is the output format for TeX, the mathematical typesetting program by Donald Knuth. If you are a novice user, this is not the format we suggest you work with.
