Complimentary Events
One of the big punchlines of classical probability is that the probability of the sample space \(S\) is 1 (100%), i.e.
\[P(S)=\frac{n(S)}{n(S)}=\frac{|S|}{|S|}=1\]
in words: "The probability something happens is 100%"
Now for an event \(E\)
The Compliment of \(E\), denoted \(\overline{E}\) or \(E'\) is everything EXCEPT the event \(E\).
We then have the following relationship with the probability of \(\overline{E}\) and the probability of \(E\)
\[P(\overline{E})=1-P(E)\]
Mathematically this can be seen as
\[|E|+\left|\overline{E}\right|=|S|\]
