I'm doing Statistics. I came across qed in Probability chapter. What's the meaning of this word?

E.g.: 1= P(A) + P(not A)
qed

QED is used to denote the end of a proof. it's an acronym for the latin quod erat demonstratum, or 'as was to be demonstrated'. you can ignore it, it carries no statistical meaning or anything.

QED is used to denote the end of a proof.


After all this time I thought QED implied: "Quite Easily Done".:D
