This work provides new bounds on the difference between the entropies of two discrete random variables in terms of the local and total variation distances between their probability mass functions. The ...

For discrete variables, the distribution is often expressed as a Probability Mass Function (PMF), which assigns probabilities to each possible value. For continuous variables, the distribution is ...

Roll a die and ask students to identify the random variable. Since a die can only take on values of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, this is a discrete random variable. Repeat ...

A discrete random variable is a type of random variable that can only take on a countable number of distinct values.
