A uniform distribution is a type of probability distribution where all outcomes are equally likely. This means that each value within a specified range has the same chance of occurring. For example, if you roll a fair six-sided die, each number from 1 to 6 has an equal probability of 1/6. In a uniform distribution, the graph of the probabilities is flat, indicating that no single outcome is favored over another. This concept is often used in statistics and can apply to various scenarios, such as random number generation or sampling from a population where each member has an equal chance of being selected.
