Scenarios in which a teacher provides the student with an initial description or demonstration of some procedure to be learned are common in many science and technology fields.

The traditional approach to expressing cumulants in terms of moments is by expansion of the cumulant generating function which is represented as an embedded power series of the moments. The moments are then obtained in terms of cumulants through successive reverse substitutions. In this note we demonstrate how cumulant-moment relations are…
