Question 734283
I think what this question is getting at is that a probability refers to the odds that a specific outcome happens, while the probability distribution gives the probabilities of all possible outcomes.<br>

For example, the -probability- that I flip a coin and it comes up heads is 1/2, but the probability distribution of the results of a coin flip are:<br>

Heads: basically 1/2
Tails: basically 1/2
Edge: "almost zero"<br>

I don't think you need to mention the edge case but as a pedant I included it anyways. You never know :P
