Random Series:
A random series describes an experiment with outcomes being functions of an integer argument: U1, U2, … (or, simply, sequences of random values – 1st value, 2nd value, etc).
Random series are often referred to as “time series” and, sometimes, as random processes with discrete time. Markov chain is an example of an important class of random series.
