Interpreting Probability
... It is because the corresponding property for a finite collection can be derived from our three axioms. We want our axiom list to be as short as possible and not contain any property that can be derived from others on the list. Axiom 1 reflects the intuitive notion that the chance of A occurring shou ...

The more our test value lies in the tails of the distribution, the more unlikely it is to be part of the distribution. The test value calculat ...

When we are trying to find the probability that one event will happen under the condition that some other event is already known to have occurred, we are trying to determine a conditional probability. The probability that one event happens given that another event is already known to have happened i ...
