Understanding sample spaces and events is essential in probability theory, particularly in applicability to engineering and applied sciences. Random experiments lead to uncertain outcomes, which are organized into sample spaces comprising all possible results. Events, as subsets of sample spaces, can take various forms such as simple, compound, or mutually exclusive. By applying set theory, one can manipulate events, which is crucial for solving probability-related problems in diverse fields.
