Extended Definition of Statistical Probability: Estimate of Probability Distribution of Rainy Days in Southern Part of India

Abstract

Recently the statistical definition of probability introduced by von Mises, which was based on the outcomes of actually performed experimentation, has been extended to the situation where outcomes of the trials happened automatically. This extended definition of probability has been applied in estimating probability distribution of rainy days in each of the 12 months at four stations in southern part of India namely Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad & Trivandrum with a view of obtaining a picture of tendency of rainfall there. This article presents the findings of estimates of obtained in the study. It has been found from the study that at each of the four stations there does not exist any month which is certainly non-rainy and there exists months which are certain rainy.
