5.3: Discrete Uniform Distribution
5.4: Binomial Distribution
The binomial distribution is a discrete probability distribution used to find the probability of success when there are two outcomes to each trial, and there are a set number of independent trials with the same probability of occurrence. To develop the process for calculating the probabilities in a binomial experiment, consider the following example.
