... In probability theory, questions of contextuality arise from the problem that the joint probability distribution for all outcomes of all measurements may not exist. We suppose a simple framework where Alice and Bob each have a measurement device with two settings. For simplicity we suppose that the ...

If you roll a die, what is the probability you will get a face with five dots? SOLUTION Each face is equally likely to occur. Since there are six faces, the probability of getting a ...
