A possible result of a random experiment is called its outcome.
Consider the experiment of rolling a die. The outcomes of this experiment are

1, 2, 3, 4, 5

, or 6 , if we are interested in the number of dots on the upper face of the die.
The set of outcomes

{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

is called the sample space of the experiment.
Thus, the set of all possible outcomes of a random experiment is called the sample space associated with the experiment. Sample space is denoted by the symbol '

S

'.
Each element of the sample space is called a sample point. In other words, each outcome of the random experiment is also called sample point.
