	~~Hoeffding's inequality was proved by [[Wassily Hoeffding]] in 1963.<ref>{{harvtxt\|Hoeffding\|1963}}</ref>~~

	~~Hoeffding's inequality~~ is ~~a special case of the [[Azuma–Hoeffding inequality]], and~~ it ~~is more general than the [[Bernstein inequalities in probability theory\|Bernstein inequality]], proved by [[Sergei Bernstein]] in 1923. They are also special cases of [[McDiarmid~~'s ~~inequality]]~~.

	~~== Special case of Bernoulli random variables ==~~

	~~Hoeffding's inequality can be applied to the important special case of identically distributed [[Bernoulli trial\|Bernoulli random variables]], and this is how the inequality~~ is ~~often used in [[combinatorics]] and [[computer science]].~~
	~~We consider a coin that shows heads with probability <math>p</math> and tails with probability <math>~~1~~-p</math>.~~
	~~We toss the coin <math>n</math> times.~~
	~~The [[expected value\|expected]] number~~ of ~~times~~ the ~~coin comes up heads is <math>p\cdot n</math>.~~
	~~Furthermore, the probability that the coin comes up heads at most <math>k</math> times can be exactly quantified by the following expression:~~

	~~:<math>\Pr\Big(n \text{ coin tosses yield heads at~~ most ~~} k \text{ times}\Big)= \sum_{i=0}^{k} \binom{n}{i} p^i (1-p)^{n-i}\,~~.~~</math>~~

	~~In the case that <math>k=(p-\epsilon) n</math> for some <math>\epsilon > 0</math>,~~
	~~Hoeffding's inequality bounds this probability by a term that is exponentially small~~ in ~~<math>\epsilon^2 \cdot n</math>:~~
	~~:<math>\Pr\Big(n \text{ coin tosses yield heads at most } (p-\epsilon) n \text{ times}\Big)\leq\exp\big(-2\epsilon^2 n\big)\,.</math>~~

	~~Similarly, in the case that <math>k=(p+\epsilon) n</math> for some <math>\epsilon > 0</math>,~~
	~~Hoeffding's inequality bounds the probability that we see at least <math>\epsilon n</math> more tosses that show heads than we would expect:~~
	~~:<math>\Pr\Big(n \text{ coin tosses yield heads at least } (p+\epsilon) n \text{ times}\Big)\leq\exp\big(-2\epsilon^2 n\big)\,~~.~~</math>~~

	~~Hence Hoeffding's inequality implies that the number of heads that we see~~ is ~~concentrated around its mean, with exponentially small tail.~~
	~~:<math>\Pr\Big(n \text{ coin tosses yield heads between } (p-\epsilon)n \text{ and } (p+\epsilon)n \text{ times}\Big)\geq 1-2\exp\big(-2\epsilon^2 n\big)\,.</math>~~

	~~== General case ==~~

	~~Let~~

	~~:<math>X_1, \dots, X_n \!</math>~~

	~~be [[independent random variables]]~~.
	~~Assume that the~~ <~~math~~>~~X_i~~<~~/math~~> ~~are [[almost sure]]ly bounded~~; ~~that is, assume for <math>1 \leq i \leq n</math> that~~

	~~:<math>\Pr~~(~~X_i \in~~ [~~a_i, b_i]) = 1. \!</math>~~

	~~We define the empirical mean of these variables~~

	:~~<math>\overline X = \frac{1}{n}(X_1 + \cdots + X_n).<~~/~~math>~~

	~~Theorem 2 of {{harvtxt\|Hoeffding\|1963}} proves the inequalities~~

	~~:<math>\Pr(\overline X - \mathrm{E}[\overline X] \geq t) \leq \exp \left( - \frac{2n^2t^2}{\sum_{i=1}^n (b_i - a_i)^2} \right),\!</math>~~
	~~:<math>\Pr(\|\overline X - \mathrm{E}[\overline X]\| \geq t) \leq 2\exp \left( - \frac{2n^2t^2}{\sum_{i=1}^n (b_i - a_i)^2} \right),\!<~~/~~math>~~

	~~which are valid for positive values of ''t''~~. ~~Here <math>\mathrm{E}[\overline X]</math> is the [[expected value]] of <math>\overline X</math>~~.
	~~The inequalities can be also stated in terms of the sum~~

	~~:<math>S = X_1 + \cdots + X_n</math>~~

	~~of the random variables:~~

	~~:<math>\Pr(S - \mathrm{E}[S] \geq t) \leq \exp \left( - \frac{2t^2}{\sum_{i=1}^n (b_i - a_i)^2} \right),\!<~~/~~math>~~
	~~:<math>\Pr(\|S - \mathrm{E}[S~~]~~\| \geq t~~) ~~\leq 2\exp \left( - \frac{2t^2}{\sum_{i=1}^n (b_i - a_i)^2} \right).\!</math>~~

	Note that the inequalities also hold when the <math>X_i</math> have been obtained using sampling without replacement; in this case the random variables are not independent anymore. A proof of this statement can be found in Hoeffding's paper. For slightly better bounds in the case of sampling without replacement, see for instance the paper by {{harvtxt\|Serfling\|1974}}.
