A random variable is a real-valued function that assigns a numerical value to each outcome in the sample space of a random experiment. Random variables are classified as discrete (countable values) or continuous (values over an interval). X 0 1 2 3 4 5 --------------------- P(X) 0.1 C 0.2 2C 0.3 ...
