Definition of Experiment
An experiment is a way of collecting data.
For example, if you want to find out how likely it is for a spinner to land on "yellow", a useful experiment would be to spin the spinner one hundred times, note down which colour it lands on each time, and calculate the fraction of these that are yellow.
Another experiment might involve asking your friends to tell you their favourite computer game and writing down the results.
