Summary

In Part I, we saw that experiments are classified as either having a discrete sample space, with a countable number of possible outcomes, or a continuous sample space, with an uncountable number of possible outcomes. In this part, our focus will be on the discrete world. In Part III we will focus on the continuous world.
