Lesson 5: Discrete Random Variables
... This lesson introduces students to the definition of a discrete random variable as a function that assigns a numerical value to each outcome of a sample space. It is not necessary to use the function terminology, but if so, discuss the domain of the function as representing the sample space and the ...

... selected person will be struck by lightning this year. The sample space consists of two simple events: the person is struck by lightning or is not. Because these simple events are not equally likely, we can use the relative frequency approximation (Rule 1) or subjectively estimate the probability (R ...

... p < pc , open clusters are almost surely finite, and we can ask questions about their size (Section 4.2). When p > pc , there is almost surely an infinite open cluster, and we can ask questions about how many such infinite open clusters there are (Section 4.3). Combining results from both phases, we ...
