If the random variable is to follow some properties of the particular probability distribution function, then it is easy to find out qualitative measure of the random variable like mean, variance, skewness and kurtosis. It is possible to formulate these type of random variable according to specified law either on the basis of condition or on the basis of results. Suppose outcome of random variable are equally likely, possible outcome of random variable are two, then it is very easy to find out the probability values but when the number of outcomes are more and it is difficult to find out the probability for a rare happening event in an experiment. These types of particular problem can be solved by using specified probability distribution functions.<\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">In this module, discrete distribution function are discussed with their properties and mathematical expression of the probability distribution function. The distributions that we will discuss in this module will be only for univariate case. Univariate is basically refer to mathematical function or equation that is defined only for one variable. In literature, distribution for two random variables and more than two random variables are also discussed but we restrict our self in this module only to one variable. As we already discussed about the types of random variable discrete or continuous random variable in the module \u201cIntroduction to Random Variable and its Properties\u201d. In this module, our main motive will be to give an introduction to distribution of discrete random variables. Some of the most commonly used discrete distributions in literature are given as: discrete uniform distribution, Bernoulli distribution, Binomial distribution, Poisson distribution, Negative Binomial distribution, multinomial distribution, geometric distribution and hyper geometric distribution etc.<\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Properties of these discrete distribution functions will be discussed like expectation (mean), variance, skewness, kurtosis and pmf function. In the module \u201cIntroduction to Random Variable and its Properties\u201d we discussed about the mathematical formulation as well as properties of expectation, variance, skewness and kurtosis. We also discussed about the properties of a probability distribution function. In this module, we will again discussed about moments, skewness and kurtosis but now we will derive these properties for defined discrete distributions.<\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong>3.\u00a0\u00a0 Discrete Uniform Distribution<\/strong>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Discrete Uniform Distribution is used when <\/span>outcome<span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\"> of <\/span>random<span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\"> experiment is equally likely.

If the random variable is to follow some properties of the particular probability distribution function, then it is easy to find out qualitative measure of the random variable like mean, variance, skewness and kurtosis. It is possible to formulate these type of random variable according to specified law either on the basis of condition or on the basis of results. Suppose outcome of random variable are equally likely, possible outcome of random variable are two, then it is very easy to find out the probability values but when the number of outcomes are more and it is difficult to find out the probability for a rare happening event in an experiment. These types of particular problem can be solved by using specified probability distribution functions.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">In this module, discrete distribution function are discussed with their properties and mathematical expression of the probability distribution function. The distributions that we will discuss in this module will be only for univariate case. Univariate is basically refer to mathematical function or equation that is defined only for one variable. In literature, distribution for two random variables and more than two random variables are also discussed but we restrict our self in this module only to one variable. As we already discussed about the types of random variable discrete or continuous random variable in the module \u201cIntroduction to Random Variable and its Properties\u201d. In this module, our main motive will be to give an introduction to distribution of discrete random variables. Some of the most commonly used discrete distributions in literature are given as: discrete uniform distribution, Bernoulli distribution, Binomial distribution, Poisson distribution, Negative Binomial distribution, multinomial distribution, geometric distribution and hyper geometric distribution etc.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Properties of these discrete distribution functions will be discussed like expectation (mean), variance, skewness, kurtosis and pmf function. In the module \u201cIntroduction to Random Variable and its Properties\u201d we discussed about the mathematical formulation as well as properties of expectation, variance, skewness and kurtosis. We also discussed about the properties of a probability distribution function. In this module, we will again discussed about moments, skewness and kurtosis but now we will derive these properties for defined discrete distributions.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>3.\u00a0\u00a0 Discrete Uniform Distribution<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Discrete Uniform Distribution is used when <\/span>outcome<span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\"> of <\/span>random<span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\"> experiment is equally likely.

These distributions are among the most widely used distribution in the literature as well as its application part. We also discussed about their mathematical expression, properties like mean, variance etc. In this module, we discussed about how to choose a particular distribution for a problem.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>8.
