- AKA: Dice Throw Process, 6-Sided Dice Toss Experiment.
- Context:
- It can involve:
- It can be associated with a Dice Roll Trial (e.g. {(1,5),(4,5),(5,4),(2,2)}
- It can be represented by a Categorical Random Variable.

- Example(s):
- a One-Dice Roll Experiment (Roll a dice one time), with:
- Sample Space={1,2,3,4,5,6} with 6x1=6 Outcomes.
- Event Space={{},{1},{2},... {1,2} … {2,4,6} … {1,3,4,5} … {1,2,3,4,5,6}} with 26=64 Events.
- a Two-Dice Roll Experiment (Roll a dice two consecutive times), with:
- Sample Space={(1,1),(1,2),...,(6,6)} with 6x6=36 Outcomes.
- Event Space={{},{(1,1)},{(1,2)} … {(1,1),(3,5)} … } with 24 Events.
