1 Discrete Random Variables
1.1 RANDOM VARIABLE
A random variable associates a numerical value with each outcome of an exper-
iment. A random variable is deÂ…ned mathematically as a real-valued function
deÂ…ned on a sample space, and is represented as a letter such as X or Y.
EXAMPLE: For the experiment of ‡ipping a coin twice, the random variable X
is deÂ…ned to be the number of tails to appear

1. Διακριτές τυχαίες μεταβλητές
1.1 Τυχαίες μεταβλητές
Μια τυχαία μεταβλητή συνδέει μια αριθμητική τιμή με κάθε έκβαση ενός πειράματος. Μια τυχαία μεταβλητή θεωρείται από τον κλάδο των μαθηματικών ως μια συνάρτηση πραγματικών τιμών σε ένα χώρο δειγμάτων, και προσδίδουμε σε αυτή γράμματα όπως το Χ ή το Υ.
Παράδειγμα: Για το πείραμα ρίψης ενός νομίσματος δυο φορές, η τυχαία μεταβλητή Χ θα είναι ο αριθμός εμφάνισης των γραμμάτων.

OK, so "ipping" is, I's sure, "flipping". What about "dened" though? Any ideas?

"deemed" (= considered), and "tails" means the back of the coin (not the face).

Changed it with the corrections needed,and a question the back of the coin is γραμματα. I don't understand the face thing kafetzou you're saying.

Aha - I didn't know if that was the right word in Greek. The face is the other side (sometimes called "heads" ).

Hmm... I would have guessed that, in this type of "scientific" paper, "de..ned" would be "defined"...?
(We could say "defined as," but not "deemed as," and it's "de...ned," not "de...med"?)
