discrete and continuous random variables. In the discrete case, it is sufficient to specify a probability mass function assigning a probability to each possible outcome (e.g. when throwing a fair die, each of the six digits to , corresponding to the number of dots on the die, has probability of being on top when it lands). The probability of an event is then defined to be the sum of the probabilities of all outcomes that
