Bernoulli Distribution
Overview
- The Bernoulli distribution models the outcomes of a single binary experiment with two possible outcomes: success (1) and failure (0).
Use Case
- Used when there are only two possible outcomes in a random experiment, such as flipping a coin, single trial success or failure, or whether a single event occurs or not.
- Probability Mass Function (PMF):
- ( p ): Probability of success (getting 1)
Example
- Coin Flipping:
- Let (fair coin).
- PMF:
- (probability of getting heads)
- (probability of getting tails)
