i have repeatedly comes across questions involving mutually exclusive events and independent events.....whats the necessary difference between them that clearly distinguishes them ? both of them do not affect their next or previous events when they occur.....so how do they they associate amongst themselves if they occur at one time..?

Many alternative “scenarios for the future” can be developed, representing a certain logical picture. In fact, it is quite easy to understand, for example check this out - main events tickets with a discount! or you turn off the computer. In this case, the obligatory condition must be observed - alternative scenarios should not contain contradictions, that is, mutually exclusive steps and events.
