Abstract
Let K be a convex body in . A random polytope is the convex hull of finitely many points chosen at random in K. is the expectation of the volume of a random polytope of n randomly chosen points. I. B\'ar\'any showed that we have for convex bodies with boundary and everywhere positive curvature where denotes the Gau\ss-Kronecker curvature. We show that the same formula holds for all convex bodies if denotes the generalized Gau\ss-Kronecker curvature.
