Continuous Variable: can take on any value between two specified values. Obtained by measuring. Discrete Variable: not continuous variable (cannot take on any value between two specified values).

A continuous r. v. can only hypothetically assume any value on a continuum. When only an approximating discrete r. v. ("discretization") is observable, estimation procedures employing the hypothetical ...
