This calculator is designed to help you compute probabilities for geometric distributions. It is ideal for statisticians, data scientists, and students who need to perform advanced statistical calculations.
All calculations are based on the formulas provided by University of Iowa's Statistics Department. All calculations adhere strictly to the data and methods provided by this source.
\(P(X = x) = (1 - p)^{x-1} \cdot p\)
The geometric distribution models the number of trials needed to get the first success in repeated independent Bernoulli trials.
It is used in scenarios where you need to model the number of trials until a first success, such as quality testing or waiting times.
