Mean and Variance of Random Variables. The mean of a random variable provides the long-run average of the variable, or the expected average outcome over many observations.
A variable is a symbolic name for (or reference to) information. The variable's name represents what information the variable contains. They are called variables because the represented information can change but the operations on the variable remain the same.
