  2. Notation in probability and statistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notation_in_probability...

    Random variables are usually written in upper case Roman letters, such as or and so on. Random variables, in this context, usually refer to something in words, such as "the height of a subject" for a continuous variable, or "the number of cars in the school car park" for a discrete variable, or "the colour of the next bicycle" for a categorical variable.

  3. Language interpretation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_interpretation

    Consecutive interpreting of whole thoughts, rather than in small pieces, is desirable so that the interpreter has the whole meaning before rendering it in the target language. This affords a truer, more accurate, and more accessible interpretation than where short CI or simultaneous interpretation is used.

  4. Interpretation (logic) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpretation_(logic)

    An interpretation is an assignment of meaning to the symbols of a formal language. Many formal languages used in mathematics , logic , and theoretical computer science are defined in solely syntactic terms, and as such do not have any meaning until they are given some interpretation.

  5. Probability interpretations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability_interpretations

    Probability theory is an established field of study in mathematics. It has its origins in correspondence discussing the mathematics of games of chance between Blaise Pascal and Pierre de Fermat in the seventeenth century, [15] and was formalized and rendered axiomatic as a distinct branch of mathematics by Andrey Kolmogorov in the

  6. Interpreting notes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpreting_notes

    Interpreting notes are used by some interpreters, who re-express oral communications (such as speeches) in whole or in part. Such notes may be used when the interpreter is working in " consecutive mode ."

  7. Simultaneous interpretation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simultaneous_interpretation

    Simultaneous interpretation (SI) is when an interpreter translates the message from the source language to the target language in real-time. [1] Unlike in consecutive interpreting, this way the natural flow of the speaker is not disturbed and allows for a fairly smooth output for the listeners.

  9. Mathematical analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_analysis

    In mathematics, a metric space is a set where a notion of distance (called a metric) between elements of the set is defined. Much of analysis happens in some metric space; the most commonly used are the real line , the complex plane , Euclidean space , other vector spaces , and the integers .
