Original question and givens

Use one complete finite probability space with outcome indices 0 through 3, aligned masses=[20/49, 15/49, 8/49, 6/49], values X=[-1, 1, 13, 1], 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. Selected block_label=1 must exist. Give (block_label,indices,original_integral,conditional_integral,equal?,boundary). Boundary is positive_block or null_block_a.s._arbitrary.

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.
