An Elementary Random Experiment is a Random Experiment that is an Elementary Experiment (which cannot be divided into two or more random experiments).
- AKA: Simple Random Experiment.
- Context:
- Example(s):
- A Binomial Trial, such a Coin Toss.
- a Multinomial Trial, such a Dice Roll Experiment with a Biased Dice.
- A k-Sided Coin Toss Trial with faces: {1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3}
- A Simple Lifetime Experiment of Lifetime of a lightbulb.
- Counter-Example(s):
- a Binomial Process, such as counting the number of heads after two coin tossess.
- a Multinomial Process, such as counting the number of Aces after five single-deck card draws.
- The Lifetime of a Complex System with many Dependent Component Lifetimes.
