In the realm of probability, there exist events known as mutually exclusive events. These are events that are incapable of occurring simultaneously. To ascertain if certain events are mutually exclusive, one must examine if their intersection is devoid of any elements. If indeed it is empty, then the events are mutually exclusive. This infers that the happening of one event prevents the occurrence of the other(s).
