1. Definiton
An experiment involves chance or probability. It
can lead to many events. Each event leads to an outcome. An
outcome is the result of a single trial of an experiment.
Probability measures how likely an event could happen.
2. Example:
Tossing a coin is an experiment. Getting a head or a tail are the events.
The event "head" is an outcome; the event "tail" is the second outcome. The probability
that an outcome is a tail measures 1/2 (the same value for the head outcome).
