Discrete Probability Distributions
Binomial distribution
Example: n = 5 flights daily from Seoul into Jeju Airport, and the probability
that any flight arrives late is p = 0.2.
Mean: = np
Variance: 2 = np(1 p)

Poisson distribution
Assume that the probability a person is passed away during one year from
lung cancer is 0.001. A life insurance company has 1,000 subscribers. It pays
$100,000 to a subscriber if she/he dies due to lung cancer.
We know: n = 1000, p = 0.001. Thus = np = 1.0

Normal distribution
Major characteristics of the normal distribution:
1. The normal distribution is bell-shaped and the mean, median, and mode are
all equal and are located in the center of the distribution.
2. The distribution is symmetrical(좌우대칭) about the mean. A vertical line
drawn at the mean divides the distribution into two equal halves and
these halves possess exactly the same shape.
3. It is asymptotic(점근). That is, the tails of the curve approach the X-axis but
never actually touch it.
4. A normal distribution is completely described by its mean and standard
deviation. This indicates that if the mean and standard deviation are
known, a normal distribution can be constructed and its curve drawn.
There are various normal distributions, because of different means (center) and
different variances (height).
