the difference is just that non-probability sampling does not involve random selection, but probability sampling does.
Are you seriously asking this question?!?!?!?! everyone knows that the answer to life is chuck Norris! and that a 15 year old named alyssa mast in mesa, AZ rules the world
In (Simple) random sampling, all of the units in the sample have the same chance of being included in the sample. Units are selected randomly from a population by some random method that gives equal probability to each element. In stratified random sampling, the entire population is divided into heterogeneous sub-popuation known as strata (sub-population with unequal variances) and a random sample is chosen from each of these stratum. The reason when to use which depends on the situation and need of the experimenter.
A census would get data from 100% of the population (or at least close to 100%). Sampling would be to get data from some of the population (much less than 100%).
Simple!
