Definition Definition For any random event or experiment, the set that is formed with all the possible outcomes is called a sample space. When any random event takes place that has multiple outcomes, the possible outcomes are grouped together in a set. The sample space can be anything, from a set of vectors to real numbers.

Suppose that the genders of the three children of a certain family are soon to be revealed. Outcomes are thus triples of "girls" (g) and "boys" (b), which we write gbg, bbb, etc. For each outcome, let R be the random variable counting the number of girls in each outcome. For example, if the outcome is gbb, then =Rgbb1. Suppose that the random variable X is defined in terms of R as follows: =X−2R−R22. The values of X are given in the table below.
