ABSTRACT

Recall that any discrete distribution is concentrated on a finite or countable number of isolated values. Conversely, continuous variables can take any value of an interval, (a, b), (a,+∞), (−∞,+∞), etc. Various times like service time, installation time, download time, failure time, and also physical measurements like weight, height, distance, velocity, temperature, and connection speed are examples of continuous random variables.
