    The discrete probability distribution of the number of successes in a sequence of n independent yes/no experiments, each of which yields success with probability p.

Wikipedia

  1. Binomial distribution

    In probability theory and statistics, the binomial distribution with parameters n and p is the discrete probability distribution of the number of successes in a sequence of n independent experiments, each asking a yes–no question, and each with its own Boolean-valued outcome: success (with probability p) or failure (with probability q = 1 − p {\displaystyle q=1-p} ). A single success/failure experiment is also called a Bernoulli trial or Bernoulli experiment, and a sequence of outcomes is called a Bernoulli process; for a single trial, i.e., n = 1, the binomial distribution is a Bernoulli distribution. The binomial distribution is the basis for the popular binomial test of statistical significance.The binomial distribution is frequently used to model the number of successes in a sample of size n drawn with replacement from a population of size N. If the sampling is carried out without replacement, the draws are not independent and so the resulting distribution is a hypergeometric distribution, not a binomial one. However, for N much larger than n, the binomial distribution remains a good approximation, and is widely used.

  1. binomial distribution

    A binomial distribution is a probability distribution in statistics that describes the number of successful outcomes in a fixed number of trials of a binomial experiment. Each trial is independent of the others and only two outcomes are possible (success or failure). The distribution is defined by two parameters: the number of trials (n) and the probability of success on a single trial (p).
