For a fair coin, the indicator $X$ of heads and the indicator $1 - X$ of tails are identically distributed, but they are never equal.\nIf $X \\overset{d}{=} Y$ and $g$ is a measurable function, then $g(X) \\overset{d}{=} g(Y)$.\n\n## Explanations\n\n### L1 human\n\nTwo random variables are identically distributed when they behave the same way statistically.\nThe results of two different fair dice are identically distributed, although the dice show different numbers in most throws.\n",
