Probability and Statistics(1/35) Concept Probability is a measure of the likelihood that some event will occur.It is also a way to quantify or to gauge the likelihood that an observed measurement or random variable will take on values within some set or range of values. A random experiment is defined as a process or action whose outcome cannot be predicted with certainty and would likely change when the experiment is repeated. >The sample space is the set of all outcomes from an experiment. It is possible sometimes to list all outcomes in the sample space. @月两大学 AW TONGJI UNIVERSITY
