Typo in discrete events chapter.

[ChrisStokes]

Consider one probabilistic event, rolling a six-sided die where each side is equally likely to land. Therefore the probability of rolling a 1 is 16, the probability of rolling a 2 is 16, and so on. This means that if the die is rolled a large number of times, 16 of those rolls would be expected to be a 1.

I think you wanted 1/6... This was in the Kindle version, Windows client

So this looks like it's a kindle version issue which is a pain as I'm unsure of anything we can do on this side to fix it as I'm guessing it's something to do with how kindles render LaTeX

Here's a picture of the same section in print:

I'll drop a line to the publishers to make them aware. Perhaps they can fix it.

Thanks a lot for pointing it out. Sorry :(
