Continuous Variable: can take on any value between two specified values. Obtained by measuring. Discrete Variable: not continuous variable (cannot take on any value between two specified values).

A continuous r. v. can only hypothetically assume any value on a continuum. When only an approximating discrete r. v. ("discretization") is observable, estimation procedures employing the hypothetical ...

Continuous Variable: can take on any value between two specified values. Obtained by measuring. Covariance: a measure of the direction of the linear relationship between two variables. Discrete ...

In connection with a random vector (X, Y) in the unit square Q and a couple (m, n) of positive integers, we consider all discretizations of the continuous probability distribution of (X, Y) that are ...
