expected average outcome over many observations.The common symbol for the mean (also known as the expected value of X) is ‚ formally defined by Variance - The variance of a discrete random variable X measures the spread‚ or variability‚ of the distribution‚ and is defined by The standard deviation is the square root of the variance. Expectation - The expected value (or mean) of X‚ where X is a discrete random variable‚ is a weighted average of the possible values that X can take‚ each value

Probability distribution Definition with example: The total set of all the probabilities of a random variable to attain all the possible values. Let me give an example. We toss a coin 3 times and try to find what the probability of obtaining head is? Here the event of getting head is known as the random variable. Now what are the possible values of the random variable‚ i.e. what is the possible number of times that head might occur? It is 0 (head never occurs)‚ 1 (head occurs once out of 2 tosses)
