Abstract
We have seen in the Intermezzo that there is a need to generalise the notions of an experiment and a random variable. In this chapter we suggest a set up which allows us to do this. As in the first two chapters, we first define experiments, and after that random variables. The theory in this chapter is built up similarly as the theory in the first two chapters.
