Geometric distribution

Summary

The geometric distribution describes the waiting time until the first success in a sequence of independent Bernoulli trials. One version counts the failures before the first success, and the other counts the trials up to and including it. The node geometric distribution gives the precise definition.

What this node needs for W2
  • edge instance_of in: at least two examples (0 of 2)
  • edge not_instance_of in: at least one non-example (0 of 1)
  • edge specializes both: the more general notions and the special cases (0 of 1)

The writing levels say how complete the text of a node is. They do not measure its truth.
