Notes

The probability mass function for binom is:

f (k) = (k n) p^{k} (1 - p)^{n - k}

for $k \in {0, 1, \dots, n}$ , $0 \leq p \leq 1$

binom takes $n$ and $p$ as shape parameters, where $p$ is the probability of a single success and $1 - p$ is the probability of a single failure.

This distribution uses routines from the Boost Math C++ library for the computation of the pmf, cdf, sf, ppf and isf methods. ^[1]
