What should this article's purpose be?[edit]
It looks like pretty much exactly what I would want to see in this article is already all present in Probability space. Presumably the distinction is that a probability space is a model for what happens in an experiment, but the result is a great deal of overlap between the two topics. Should both articles be merged into some larger article about probabilistic experiments and the probability space models used to describe them? Should all the appropriate parts (most) of Probability space be duplicated here? Thoughts, anyone? -Bryanrutherford0 (talk) 00:57, 20 July 2013 (UTC)
- Well, I brought in some of the content from Probability space that should be in this article. Maybe this is the more general version of the topic, which a search is more likely to lead a novice to, and for more technical reading they can be linked on the Probability space? -Bryanrutherford0 (talk) 14:52, 20 July 2013 (UTC)
The Mathematical description section is not about a probabilistic experiment at all; it is just a copypaste from another article and should be deleted.
