The probability function of x and y jointly, f(x,y), is equal to f(x) times f(y) if, and only if, x and y are statistically independent. For any number of variables, [x sub 1,..., x sub n], if the joint probability is the product of several probability functions, then the variables are all statistically independent. Independent variables are non-correlated, but not necessarily conversely. 2, record 1, English, - statistical%20independence
