>discrete probability

Discrete probability is just continuous probability with Heaviside-Dirac delta functions.

Yes a function who's value is the unit infinity at 0

Yes and no.

yes, since you're dealing with a finite number of event so what you are doing is just counting.

No because in fact it brings a whole new way of looking at things in the discrete world.

Pick related is probably the best thing that happened to discrete math in the last 50 years.

And set theory.

And this kids, is why you should never believe anything a physicist says.

continuous probability is just discrete probability while >implying n is large

>>8591362

Martingals are combinatorics ?
Markov chains are combinatorics ?

Kill yourself.

only if the probability distribution is uniform.
