Binomial Probability Distribution


The Binomial Probability Distribution can be applied to a situation where a sample of n events observed. Each event can have exactly two outcomes:  "success" or "failure." The sampling is performed with replacement so that each event is independent; that is the probability for "success" is the same. The disribution gives the probability that X = 0, 1, 2, ..., n "successes" occur.
