TYPES OF EVENT
Simple event: An event is said to be simple if it contains only one elememt in sample space.
Compound eveny: An event is said to be a compound event it  having more than one element in sample space.
Eqally likely event or equally probable event:Events are said to be equally likely if there is no reason for an event to occur in preference to any other event .It means events are said to be equally likely when each event is equally likely to occur as any other.
