9391592417	Random	An outcome is random if we know the possible values it can have, but not which particular value it takes	0
9391592418	Generating random numbers	Random numbers are hard to generate. Nevertheless, several internet sites offer and unlimited supply of equally likely random values	1
9391592419	Simulation	A simulation models a real-world situation by using random-digit outcomes to mimic the uncertainty of a response variable of interest	2
9391592420	Simulation component	A component uses equally likely random digits to model simple random occurrences whose outcomes may not be equally likely.	3
9391592421	Trial	The sequence of several components representing events that we are pretending will take place	4
9391592422	Response Variable	Values of the response variable record the results of each trial with respect to what were interested in knowing.	5
