图1:The [[probability mass function]] (pmf) ''p''(''S'') specifies the probability distribution for the sum ''S'' of counts from two [[dice]]. For example, the figure shows that ''p''(11) = 2/36 = 1/18. The pmf allows the computation of probabilities of events such as ''P''(''S'' > 9) = 1/12 + 1/18 + 1/36 = 1/6, and all other probabilities in the distribution.

In contrast, when a random variable takes values from a continuum then typically, any individual outcome has probability zero and only events that include infinitely many outcomes, such as intervals, can have positive probability. For example, the probability that a given object weighs ''exactly'' 500 g is zero, because the probability of measuring exactly 500 g tends to zero as the accuracy of our measuring instruments increases. Nevertheless, in quality control one might demand that the probability of a "500 g" package containing between 490 g and 510 g should be no less than 98%, and this demand is less sensitive to the accuracy of measurement instruments.

相比之下，当一个随机变量从一个连续体中取值时，那么通常情况下，任何单个结果的概率都为零，只有包含无限多个结果的事件，例如间隔，才有正的概率。例如，一个给定的物体重量正好是500克的概率为零，因为随着我们测量仪器精度的提高，正好测量500克的概率趋向于零。然而，在质量控制方面，人们可能会要求包装在490克至510克之间的“500克”包装的可能性不低于98% ，而这一要求对测量仪器的准确性不太敏感。

Continuous probability distributions can be described in several ways. The [[probability density function]] describes the [[infinitesimal]] probability of any given value, and the probability that the outcome lies in a given interval can be computed by [[Integration (mathematics)|integrating]] the probability density function over that interval. The probability that the possible values lie in some fixed interval can be related to the way sums converge to an integral; therefore, continuous probability is based on the definition of an integral.
