| This contains a nice example of a 3
by 3 transition matrix. It also has a test question with answer and then
some further problems. It is part of a book, most of which is on the web
site. |

An Introduction to Stochastic Processes with
Applications to Biology
Linda J.S. Allen

|
This is a sophisticated introduction to the theory of
Markov chains, for those who want to see why it all works. It assumes a
certain amount of mathematical sophistication and the some knowledge of
probability theory and linear algebra. |
