I wonder whether that is equivalent the same technical term from set theory which mean "all except for a finite number of exceptions", and thus with a finite underlying set, it's correct to say that "almost all" elements have a property when in fact none of them have it...
- jrp 17y agoIt's similar, but with a finite set it wouldn't show up unless you had some outcomes have probability 0 (in which case, why not just delete them from the outcome space?). Where you need the idea is in continuous spaces - like a uniform [0,1] random variable. With probability 1 it's not a rational number, etc.
