Binomial Distribution
The following functions are associated with the binomial equation:
Click to copy this expression
dbinom(k, n, q)—Returns the probability density for value k.
pbinom(k, n, q)—Returns the cumulative probability distribution for value k.
qbinom(p, n, q)—Returns the inverse cumulative probability distribution for probability p.
rbinom(m, n, q)—Returns a vector of m random numbers having the binomial distribution.
Arguments
k and n are integers, 0 ≤ k ≤ n. To allow integration and other operations over these arguments, values outside of the stated range are allowed, but they produce a 0 result.
q is a real number, 0 ≤ q ≤ 1.
p is a real number, 0 ≤ p ≤ 1.
m is an integer, m > 0.
