If you have a constant sweet taste in your mouth, itâs possible you have taste impairment, meaning thereâs a problem with your ability to taste. There are many reasons for taste impairment, including a nasal infection, cold, or flu.
Discrete vs. Continuous Variables. Quantitative variables can be further classified as discrete or continuous. If a variable can take on any value between its minimum value and its maximum value, it is called a continuous variable; otherwise, it is called a discrete variable.
Recall that in general, the probability model of a discrete random variable with range consists of probabilities P(X = i) for i = 1,2, ..., k. The probability of a continuous random variable is not as evident. Lets begin with an example where we know the answers. This will motivate the continuous probability model.
