... Example: Our random experiment is to flip a fair coin twice. The r.v. X is defined to be the number of heads that occur. The sample space of the experiment is S = { HH, HT, TH, TT }. Since the coin is fair, each of these outcomes occurs with probability 0.25. The distribution of the r.v. x is given ...

... Key Probability Distributions in Econometrics The normal or Gaussian distribution is a symmetrical bell curve. It is found everywhere, and the Central Limit Theorem tells us why: because whenever a large number of independently distributed random variables are added together the sum tends to the nor ...
