Uppercase letters (like ) denote the random variable itself, which is a function or rule before observation. Lowercase letters (like ) denote a specific realized value or observation of that variable after the experiment is conducted.
Conditions: The context involves probability notation.; Distinguishing between the theoretical variable and empirical data.
