- RandomBinomial[Number n of Trials, Probability p]
- Generates a random number from a binomial distribution with n trials and probability p.
- Example:
RandomBinomial[3, 0.1]
gives j ∈ {0, 1, 2, 3}, where the probability of getting j is the probability of an event with probability 0.1 occuring j times in three tries.

- RandomBinomial[Number n of Trials, Probability p]
- Generates a random number from a binomial distribution with n trials and probability p.
- Example:
RandomBinomial[3, 0.1]
gives j ∈ {0, 1, 2, 3}, where the probability of getting j is the probability of an event with probability 0.1 occuring j times in three tries.
