General continuous sample space

   There is no easily accessible general theory for infinite non-countable sample spaces. When tex2html_wrap_inline1260 , the generalization of the geometric probability uses a non-negative density function tex2html_wrap_inline1262

For one-dimensional case k=1, examples of densities are collected in Table gif on page gif.
