Statistics 101: the Binomial Distribution

Towards Data Science

Experiments consisting of a sequence of identical and independent trials resulting in one of two outcomes are known as binomial experiments. Examples of events that follow the binomial distribution…

Fun with the Binomial Distribution

Towards Data Science

Everyone knows and loves the normal distribution. It is used in a huge variety of applications such as investment modeling, A/B testing, and manufacturing process improvement (six sigma). But people…

Binomial distributions in practice

Towards Data Science

Any doubts about the binomial distribution? After reading, you will comfortably use the binomial distributions from both theoretical and practical perspectives.

The Bernoulli and Binomial Distributions

It is a discrete distribution and describes success or failure of an event. e.g:- In an examination student can either pass or fail , if a coin is tossed it gives either head or tail. In other word…

Demystifying the Binomial Distribution

Towards Data Science

Before we jump into binomial distributions, it is important to understand Bernoulli trials. A Bernoulli trial is a term that is used in probability theory and statistics. It is a trial (an…

Understanding Bernoulli and Binomial Distributions

Towards Data Science

Whenever you are dealing with Random Variables, it is important to identify the probability function associated with them. The latter is a function which assigns to each possible outcome of your…

Binomial Distribution Tutorial for Data Scientists
