is probabilistic
Probability
the process which an observation (or measurement) data is obtained through either uncontrolled events in nature or controlled situations in a laboratory.
Experiment
the set whose elements are all the possible outcomes of an experiment.
Sample Space
elements in a sample space
Sample Points
has a finite number of outcomes
Finite Sample Space
has an infinite number of outcomes
Infinite Sample Space
a subset of the sample space.
Event
an event that contains one sample point.
Simple Event
has no outcomes, cannot occur.
Null Space {} or Empty Set Ø
consists of all outcomes that are contained in one event or the other.
The Union of Two Events
consists of all outcomes that are contained in one event and the other.
The Intersection of Two event
is the set of outcomes in the sample space that are not contained in the event.
The Complement of an Event
are the three special rules, or counting techniques, used to determine the number of outcomes in events.
- Multiplication rule
- Permutation rule
- Combination rule
is the likelihood or chance that a particular outcome or event from a random experiment will occur.
