+The universal set or sample space is the set everything, and is denoted $S$.
+Therefore the probability of hitting $S$ is $P(S) = 1$.
+
+This is the first of 3 axioms repeated below.
+
+\begin{enumerate}
+ \item For any event $A$, $P(A) \geq 0$.
+ \item The probability of hitting sample space is always 1, $P(S) = 1$.
+ \item If events $A_1, A_2, ...$ are \textbf{disjoint} event, then
+ \begin{equation}
+ P(A_1 \cup A_2 ...) = P(A_1) + P(A_2)\,.
+ \end{equation}
+\end{enumerate}
+
+The last axiom requires that the events $A_n$ are disjoint.
+If they aren't one should subtract the part they have in common.
+This is called the \emph{Inclusion-Exclusion Principle}.
+
+\begin{principle}
+ The \emph{Inclusion-Exclusion Principle} is defined as
+ \begin{equation}
+ P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)\,.
+ \end{equation}
+ Definition with 3 events can be found in the in the book.
+\end{principle}
+
+\section{Counting}
+
+The probability of a event $A$ can be found by
+\begin{equation}
+ P(A) = \frac {|A|} {|S|}\,.
+\end{equation}
+It is therefore required to count how many elements are in $S$ and $A$.
+The most simple method is the \emph{multiplication principle}.
+
+\begin{principle}[Multiplication principle]
+ Let there be $r$ random experiments, where the $k$'th experiment has $n_k$ outcomes.
+ Then there are
+ \begin{equation}
+ n_1 \cdot n_2 \cdot ... \cdot n_r
+ \end{equation}
+ possible outcomes over all $r$ experiments.
+\end{principle}
+
+Possible outcomes when choosing $k$ objects from a basket with $n$ objects.
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item Sampling with Replacement and with Ordering
+ \[
+ n^k
+ \]
+ \item Sampling without Replacement and with Ordering
+ \[
+ n(n - 1) \dots (n - k - 1)
+ \]
+ \item Sampling without Replacement and without Ordering
+ \[
+ \frac{n(n-1) \dots (n - k - 1)}{k!} = \frac {n!} {(n- k)! k!} = \binom n k
+ \]
+ \item Sampling with Replacement and without Ordering
+ \[
+ \binom {n - 1 - k} k
+ \]
+\end{itemize}
+
+\section{Independence of Events}
+
+Describes whether the outcome of event $B$, changes the changes of event $A$ occuring.
+If this is false, it can be said that $P(A|B) = P(A)$.
+
+\begin{definition}[Independence]
+ Two events are independent if
+ \[
+ P(A \cap B) = P(A) P(B)
+ \]
+\end{definition}
+
+\section{Mixed Definitions}
+
+\begin{definition}[Conditional Probability]
+ The probability that $A$ occurs given that $B$ occurs:
+ \[
+ P(A|B) = \frac {P(A \cap B)} {P(B)}\,,\:P(B) > 0
+ \]
+\end{definition}
+
+\begin{definition}[Baye's Rule]
+ For any two events $A$ and $B$, where $P(A) \neq 0$, we have that
+ \[
+ P(B|A) = \frac {P(A|B) P(B)} {P(A)}\,.
+ \]
+\end{definition}
