33.1.4 From Frequency to Probability

Core idea

The frequency wobbles around but eventually settles near one number, and that "bullseye" is the probability P(A), the event's built-in likelihood

Module goal. Start from random phenomena, where "you can't be sure of the outcome," and build up probability as a number that measures "how likely" something is
