Lesson 17: Geometric Distribution Part 1

Introduction to Geometric Distribution. We give an intuitive introduction to the geometric random variable, outline its probability mass function, and cumulative distribution function.

Thank you so much, it is a great video! 
The only clear explanation on YouTube.

For the CDF of the Geometric function, there is a faster way.

You can find the sum of a geometric series for r (ratio) between (-1, 1), by using the formula: S_n= a(1-r^n)/1-r where a is the first term of the serie. If you use this formula, it only takes one line of paper.

Never thought I would say this, but I am starting to feel the Bern!

this video is the tits, gonna credit this guy when im rolling in the dough of the actuarial life

thank you for showing the cdf proof this way! I was not getting it with the "shorter" way other videos were using!

[lolo]

I found this series of videos to be very helpful. Am an engineering student by the way :)

Thank you so much for this video. I had been looking for the condition where geometric distribution is applied. In every video I watched, they only taught how a problem is solved using geometric distribution. None of them taught when this distribution is applied.
This video has helped me so much. Thank you for this😇

Px(k) is not suppose to be Pk(k), I am not really sure

15:23 this is sometimes called the survivor function O: oh i bet i know what that means...
