Glossary

chance experiment
an experiment involving making an observation in a situation where there is uncertainty about which of two or more possible outcomes will result.
sample space
the list of all possible outcomes of a chance experiment.
event
an outcome or collection of outcomes for a chance experiment.
probability
a numeric measure of how likely the event is to happen.
The Law of Large Numbers
as we increase the number of times we repeat a chance experiment, the closer we can expect the empirical probability calculated from our chance experiment to be to the true probability
empirical probability
the probability estimated from a chance experiment.
