Original question and givens

Use one complete finite probability space with outcome indices 0 through 3, aligned masses=[30/49, 5/49, 12/49, 2/49], values X=[-11, -2, 3, 11], and conditioning-block labels=[0, 0, 1, 1]. Masses are nonnegative and total exactly 1. Block labels describe a partition of this same space; list block summaries in increasing label order and outcomes in original index order. Conditional expectation is constant on each positive-mass block, with its weighted mean, and preserves every block integral. A zero-mass block is only determined almost surely: return a.s._arbitrary, never divide by zero. Use exact reduced fractions with positive denominators, omitting /1 for integers. Give (conditional_values,block_rows,measurable?). Each block row is [label,indices,distinct_conditional_values,constant?].

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.
