Usually we consider a random variable which assigns a value to the outcome of an event. The value assigned to the outcome can be either discrete or continuous. The continuous random variable is a random variable whose domain is defined over a continuous range.
Examples: Daily inches of rain, speed of cars on highway, purchases made everyday at grocery stores.
