RANDOM VARIABLES AND PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTIONS
RANDOM VARIABLES AND PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTIONS 1. DISCRETE RANDOM VARIABLES 1.1. Definition of a Discrete Random Variable. A random variable X is said to be discrete if it can assume only a finite or countable infinite number of distinct values. A discrete random variable can be defined on both a countable or uncountable sample space. 1.2.
