Uniform Distribution

In finance, a uniform distribution is a distribution showing the probabilities of the outcomes of a random variable that has all equal (or roughly equal) probabilities for every single outcome. Since the probabilities of rolling any of the numbers 1 through 6 on a fair, six-sided die are all equal, the distribution of probabilities for the random variable of the outcome of rolling that six-sided die would be a uniform distribution...because each probability is equal to every other probability.

Just watch our videos on this one. Spielberg is so proud of having directed them.
