Having been introduced to the basic probabilistic concepts in Chapters 3 and 4,we now begin their application to solving problems of interest. To do so we define the random variable. It will be seen to be a function, also called a mapping, of the outcomes of a random experiment to the set of real numbers. With this association we are able to use the real number description to quantify items of interest.
