Discrete Random Variables
May 1, 2024
3 minute read
Discrete Random Variables are a fundamental concept in probability theory and statistics. They are used to model the outcomes of experiments that can only take on a finite or countable number of values. For example, the number of heads when flipping a coin or the number of customers that visit a store on a given day are both examples of discrete random variables.
