Binomial distribution
... in its own right. The importance of the binomial distribution is that it has very wide application. This is because at its heart is a binary situation: one with two possible outcomes. Many random phenomena worth studying have two outcomes. Most notably, this occurs when we examine a sample from a la ...

Course Introduction
... Descriptive statistics is introduced as the vehicle for describing and characterizing data. Inferential statistics and related statistical methods provide the means of generalizing to a population from a sample thus enabling solutions and conclusions to be reached that otherwise would be not obtaine ...

This is a simple example of working with a “manual” discrete distribution (finite number of outcomes possible); as opposed to one of the “classical” discrete distributions (poisson, hypergeometric or binomial were the ...
