Discrete Uniform distributionDiscrete uniform distribution is a systematic probability distribution wherein a finite number of
values are equally likely to be observed; every one of n values has equal probability 1/n.
Basically, with this distribution all the x values of a random variable have the same probability
distribution.
Another way of saying "discrete uniform distribution" would be "a known, finite number of outcomes
equally likely to happen".
Example:
A simple example of the discrete uniform distribution is throwing a fair dice. The possible values are
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and each time the die is thrown the probability of a given score is 1/6.
, Proof: Mean
We are summing over the random variable i, where i goes from 1 to n. The
sum of i will equal to the right hand side
If we have a sum that goes from 1 to 5 (n=5). We could substitute the value
5 into the formula to get 15
