You will find there many examples of sample spaces for different typical situations.

I do not agitate you to read everything carefully -- simply take a quick look on appropriate problems.

First, it is interesting; second, it is educational.


After taking a quick look, your understanding of the subject will increase in  ORDERS  of  MAGNITUDE :  from  0.001  to  1000.
