Discrete Random Variable

Discrete Random Variable

Random variable for which the set of probabilities is a finite set.

Example

When rolling an honest die with six faces numbered 1 to 6, the possible outcomes belong to the set {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} and the set of probabilities of the events is a finite subset of the interval [0, 1].
The random variable that corresponds to this experiment is a discrete random variable.
