INTRODUCTION
The aim of this sheet is to develop the notion of a probability law and to observe different probability laws. Some of the laws the metrologist will encounter are known and modeled (theoretical laws). Their properties are frequently used and are described here. Others may be based solely on experimental observations (empirical laws). This fact sheet will help you understand the properties of probability laws.
