The document provides an overview of binomial distribution, introduced by James Bernoulli in 1738, which is a discrete probability distribution used when there are two possible outcomes: success or failure. It includes key formulas for calculating mean, variance, and standard deviation, along with a specific example involving the probability of getting a certain number of heads when tossing coins. Additionally, it outlines the conditions applicable to the binomial distribution, such as having a fixed number of trials and constant probability of success.
