Basic terms in probability include:
- Probability: Measure of the likelihood that an event will occur, ranging from 0 (impossible) to 1 (certain).
- Experiment: A procedure or action that results in one or more outcomes, like tossing a coin.
- Outcome: The result of a single trial of an experiment.
- Sample Space: The set of all possible outcomes of an experiment.
- Event: A specific outcome or a set of outcomes of an experiment.
- Random Variable: A variable whose values depend on the outcomes of a random phenomenon.
- Probability Distribution: Describes how probabilities are distributed over the values of the random variable.
- Expected Value: The average value of a random variable over many repetitions of the experiment.
- Variance: Measure of how much the values of a random variable vary from its expected value.
- Independent Events: Two events are independent if the occurrence of one does not affect the occurrence of the other.
