Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means.

Bertrand Russell


I'm taking a Probability class this term.

The null set is a subset of the set of all possible outcomes, and it is recognized as an event of the set of all possible outcomes. But it's called the impossible event.

Seemed sort of strange to me, but hey, the math prof said it so it has to be true, right?
