Discrete Mathematics
A binomial distribution is a probability distribution that summarizes the likelihood of a certain number of successes in a fixed number of independent trials, each with the same probability of success. This distribution is characterized by two outcomes, typically referred to as 'success' and 'failure,' and is described by parameters: the number of trials (n) and the probability of success (p). The connection to random variables and expectation comes from its ability to model discrete random events, while its role in probability distributions is to provide a framework for calculating the probabilities of various outcomes.
