Compare Expected to Actual Results:
Given your success probability of 0.75:
we expect 0.75 x 20 = 15 successes
Our actual results were 15 successes and 5 failures
Calculate the median:
- If q > p, 0
- If q = p, 0.5
- If q < p, 1
Since q < p, 0.25 < 0.75, then our median is 1
Calculate Variance:
Variance σ2 = pq or p(1 - p)
Variance σ2 = (0.75)(0.25)
Variance σ2 = 0.1875
Calculate Skewness:
| Skewness = | q - p |
| √pq |
| Skewness = | 0.25 - 0.75 |
| √(0.75)(0.25) |
| Skewness = | -0.5 |
| √0.1875 |
| Skewness = | -0.5 |
| 0.43301270189222 |
Skewness = -1.1547005383793
Calculate Kurtosis:
| Kurtosis = | 1 - 6pq |
| √pq |
| Kurtosis = | 1 - 6(0.75)(0.25) |
| (0.75)(0.25) |
| Kurtosis = | 1 - 6(0.1875) |
| 0.1875 |
| Kurtosis = | 1 - 1.125 |
| 0.1875 |
| Kurtosis = | -0.125 |
| 0.1875 |
Kurtosis = -0.66666666666667
Calculate Entropy:
Entropy = -qLn(q) - pLn(p)
Entropy = -(0.25)Ln(0.25) - 0.75Ln(0.75)
Entropy = -(0.25)(-1.3862943611199) - 0.75(-0.28768207245178)
Entropy = -(-0.34657359027997) - -0.21576155433884
Entropy = -0.034238445661164
Answer Summary:
Probability = 0.75
Median = 1
Variance = 0.1875
Skewness = -1.1547005383793

- Repeating an experiment using a bernoulli distribution
- expected value
- predicted value of a variable or event
E(X) = ΣxI · P(x) - kurtosis
- statistical measure describing the distribution, or skewness, of observed data around the mean. Also referred to as the volatility of volatility
- mean
- A statistical measurement also known as the average
- median
- the value separating the higher half from the lower half of a data sample,
- probability
- the likelihood of an event happening. This value is always between 0 and 1.
P(Event Happening) = Number of Ways the Even Can Happen / Total Number of Outcomes - skewness
- measure of the asymmetry of the probability distribution of a real-valued random variable about its mean
- trial
- a single performance of well-defined experiment
- variance
- How far a set of random numbers are spead out from the mean
