on a continuum ranging from :

• Complete information about each
alternative is known.

Risk

• Unpredictable outcome of an alternative.
• But enough information to predict the
probability that desired state is achieved.

Uncertainty

• High unpredictability about the alternative
and the outcome.
• Due to External conditions and
unavailability of key information.
