... the case of discrete distributions, sometimes it is used as an alternative to the chop down search. The inversion by chop down search from 0 can be used when p(x) is a discrete function (i.e., Poisson, binomial, etc.). Then, the inverse function can be calculated by successively adding p(0) + p(1) + ...

... pectation. Chernoff-Hoeffding bounds can generally be used to show that accurate estimates are likely to be obtained here if m is large enough. To get good sample complexity bounds in Haussler’s model, we need a generalization of this setting: for a domain X, a probability distribution P over X, and ...

Law of large numbers
In probability theory, the law of large numbers (LLN) is a theorem that describes the result of performing the same experiment a large number of times. According to the law, the average of the results obtained from a large number of trials should be close to the expected value, and will tend to become closer as more trials are performed.The LLN is important because it ""guarantees"" stable long-term results for the averages of some random events. For example, while a casino may lose money in a single spin of the roulette wheel, its earnings will tend towards a predictable percentage over a large number of spins. Any winning streak by a player will eventually be overcome by the parameters of the game. It is important to remember that the LLN only applies (as the name indicates) when a large number of observations are considered. There is no principle that a small number of observations will coincide with the expected value or that a streak of one value will immediately be ""balanced"" by the others (see the gambler's fallacy)
