 Dependent random choice

Dependent random choice is a concept mainly used in probability theory and stochastic processes. It refers to a selection process where the choices made are not independent of one another; rather, the outcome of one choice influences the probabilities of subsequent choices. In a typical independent random choice scenario, the probability of each outcome remains constant regardless of what has happened before. However, in dependent random choice, the selection of one item or event alters the likelihood of selecting other items or events in the future.
