Discrete Uniform distributions

2. 15 May 2019
A discrete uniform distribution is one where all the x values are discrete numbers and the probabilities are all the same.
The throwing of an unbiased die is a discrete uniform distribution since the outcomes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 are discrete numbers and all these outcomes have the probability of occurring of
Outcomes (x) 1 2 3 4 5 6
Probability p(x)
1 6
Always add the probabilities together in a table of this type to make sure they add up to one
P(x<3) means all the probabilities less than 3
