NegativeBinomialDistribution
NegativeBinomialDistribution[n, p]
represents a negative binomial distribution with parameters n and p.
Details
- The probability for value
in a negative binomial distribution is 
for non-negative integers, and is zero otherwise. » - If n is a positive integer, NegativeBinomialDistribution[n, p] gives the distribution of the number of failures in a sequence of trials with success probability p before n successes occur.
- NegativeBinomialDistribution allows n to be any positive real number.
- NegativeBinomialDistribution can be used with such functions as Mean, CDF, and RandomVariate. »
