Assignment C Edited

1. The document compares the binomial, Poisson, and normal distributions for different probabilities (p) of success in a binomial experiment with n=5 trials. 2. For p=0.05, the binomial and Poisson distributions yield similar probabilities of getting 0-5 successes, while the normal distribution probabilities differ slightly. 3. For p=0.1 and p=0.5, the same three distributions are computed and compared.
