Discrete and Continuous Random Variables

Topic Review on "Title":
  • Random Variables: A variable x is a random variable if the value that it assumes, is a numerical outcome of a random phenomenon or an experiment.
  • Discrete Random Variables: A discrete random variable categorizes persons, objects, or events according to the kind or quality of their characteristics.
  • Binomial random variable: a random variable that counts the number of successes in a sequence of independent Bernoulli trials with fixed probability of success.( Bernoulli trial refers to the two outcomes as success and failure).
  • Poisson random variable: The probability that a certain number of random events occur in a given space of time (distance, etc.), can be calculated using the Poisson probability distribution, provided that certain conditions hold.
  • Continuous random variables: A continuous random variable can take on infinite number of possible numerical values and are usually measurements.
  • Probability distribution: the assignment of probabilities (p(x)) to the values of random variable x
  • Normal random variable: The most important kind of continuous random variable
  • Uniform random variable: The values of a uniform random variable are uniformly distributed over an interval.

 

 

 

  • Binomial
    1. Mean μ=np
    2. Variance σ2=npq
    3. Standard Deviation σ=√(npq)
  • Poisson:
    1. Mean=λ
    2. Variance=λ
    3. Standar deviation=λ
  • Normal :
    1. Mean=μ
    2. Variance=σ2
    3. Standard deviation=σ
