ABSTRACT

Random.experiments.and.events.serve.as.the.building.blocks.of.all.probability.models..In.engineering.applications,.however,.we.are.typically.interested. in.quantifying. the.outcome.of.a. random.experiment.. If.a.numerical.value. is.associated.with.each.possible.outcome.of.a.random.experiment,.then.we. define.and.use.random.variables.
