What is the main difference between discrete random variables and continuous random variables?
- Discrete random variables are used for continuous data, while continuous random variables are used for discrete data.
- Discrete random variables do not involve probabilities, while continuous random variables do.
- Discrete random variables have a countable number of values, while continuous random variables assume an infinitely large number of values. (correct)
- Discrete random variables assume an infinitely large number of values, while continuous random variables have a countable number of values.
