Bernoulli Distribution

This is a discrete distribution
Named after Jacob Bermoulli
A single random experiment with outcome either success or failure
The outcome of a bernoulli trial is a random variable with a bernoulli distribution
This is equivalent to a binomial distribution where (n=1)
This type of distribution can be thought of as an extremely simple binomial distribution.

Example - Throwing a Coin

The distribution of throwing a head or a tail in a single coin flip.

Example - Rolling a Dice

Properties
