HW3 2.1.4 (Bernstein inequality)

[Sam Zhang]

In the equation, there is a notation M with |x_i| \leq M. So is M the upper bound of the number of samples? or the max value of all samples which in the problem's case, is 0.1?

Thanks,

Sam

Hi Sam,

It's the max value of the random variables; think about what the max value of your suggested rv's (from the hint) is.
