Suppose that a coin is tossed twice so that the sample space is S= {HH,
HT, TH, TT}. Let X represent the number of heads that can come up. With each
sample point we can associate a number for X as shown in Table. Thus, for example,
in the case of HH (i.e., 2 heads), X =2 while for TH (1 head), X = 1. It follows that
X is a random variable.
