Can I add the mean and variance of each distribution?

Yes, write them after the name in plain words. If there are many, a separate table reads better and the map can keep only the names.

Can I reorder the main branches?

Yes. Cut a branch together with its indented lines and paste it at the new position; the preview updates immediately.

Can I keep editing after I export?

Exported Word and PowerPoint files carry the source code at the end, so you can paste it back into the editor. You can also save the diagram on your device or to the cloud.

When to use it

The first half of the course is probability and the second half is inference, and students often lose the thread between them. This map keeps both on one page for exam review or for planning a recap session.

Make it yours

List specific distributions under the two distribution nodes: binomial, Poisson, normal, exponential.
A probability-only course can drop Estimation and Hypothesis testing.
Hang the problem types you keep missing under the matching concept.

Draw a probability and statistics mind map with Mermaid mindmap syntax. The root is Probability and statistics, and the main branches are Probability basics, Random variables, Expectation and variance, Limit theorems, Estimation, and Hypothesis testing, each with two to four concepts. Put every node on its own line, show levels with space indentation, and do not use list markers or arrows. Output only the mermaid code block.
