However, many philosophers and a few scientists use the Bayesian (subjectivist or personalist) view of probability as a measure of an individual's
degree of belief. Since beliefs are personal and such probability assignments are arbitrary, Bayesianism is hardly scientific: it is only a variety of gambling.
As uncertainty assignment terms, the
degree of belief, probability distribution, and possibility distribution are used for evidence theory, probability theory, and possibility theory, respectively.
If one embraces this approach, the general problem becomes how to handle a
degree of belief about the real world that will persist unavoidably in factfinding.
In this context, probability is interpreted as a
degree of belief rather than a frequency of occurrence.

Virtually every Wales player on the pitch produced a PB, a personal best performance during an incredible display of courage, commitment, a huge
