In a finite series of independent success-failure trials, the total number of successes has a binomial probability distribution. It is a classical result that this probability distribution is subject ...

The binomial distribution is an important discrete distribution. It gives the probability of the number of "successes," in a sequence of n independent binary trials. This applet allows users to drag ...
