## Summary

The Bernoulli distribution with parameter $p$ is the distribution of a random variable with two values.
The value $1$ has probability $p$ and the value $0$ has probability $1 - p$.
It is the distribution of one Bernoulli trial. The node [[Bernoulli distribution|0J97P5KZY0]] gives the precise definition.
