Hi all
I am struggling to see the difference between Convergence in probability and Almost surely convergence of a sequence of random variables.
From what i can see Almost surely convergence of Sequence of Random variables is very similar to pointwise convegence from Real analysis.
I am struggling to see why almost surely convergence is different to convergence in probability.
more so why does almost surely convegence imply convergence in probabililty where as the converse is not true. I see some counter examples but still don't grasp the concept
am i confusing myself by thinking convergence in proability vs almost surely convergence is analogous to pointwise convergence vs uniform convergence of sequence of functions ?
sorry if this question is not clear, I'm kind of lost here.
any pointers would we much appreciated
