A discrete distribution is a statistical probability distribution that represents the possible discrete values a variable can take.

A random variable is one whose value is unknown or a function that assigns values to each of an experiment’s outcomes. A random variable can be discrete or continuous.

Probability Distribution of a Discrete Random Variable--Each discrete random variable can only assume a finite or countably infinite number of values. If a table is made associating the probability of ...

Discrete variable's values are also "disjoint," so we have the gaps in a discrete variable's probability distribution graph. While the formula for the expected value of a discrete variable may seem ...

Explain why probability is important to statistics and data science. See the relationship between conditional and independent events in a statistical experiment. Calculate the expectation and variance ...

In a number of situations we are faced with the problem of determining efficient estimates of the mean and variance of a distribution specified by (i) a non-zero probability that the variable assumes ...

Discrete random variable A random variable that can take only a certain specified set of individual possible values-for example, the positive integers 1, 2, 3, . . .
