Definition and derivation of probability function of Binomial distribution, Poisson distribution definition, properties of these distributions such as median, mode, m.g.f, c.g.f., p.g.f., c.f., and moments up to fourth order, reproductive property, wherever exists, and their real life applications. Poisson approximation to Binomial distribution.
UNIT-II
Discrete distributions – II : Negative binomial, Geometric distributions : Definitions and
physical condition, properties of these distributions such as m.g.f, c.g.f., p.g.f., c.f. and moments up to fourth order, reproductive property, wherever exists, lack of memory property for Geometric distribution and their real life applications. Poisson approximation to Negative
binomial distribution. Hyper-geometric distribution – definition, physical conditions, derivation of probability function, mean, variance and real life applications. Binomial approximation to Hyper-geometric.

UNIT-III

such as m.g.f., c.g.f., c.f. and moments up to fourth order, reproductive property, wherever exists and their real life applications. Normal distribution as a limiting case of Binomial and Poisson distributions.

UNIT-IV
Continuous distributions – II : Exponential, Gamma : definition, properties such as m.g.f., c.g.f., c.f. and moments up to fourth order, reproductive property wherever exists and their real life applications. Beta distribution of two kinds : Definitions, mean and variance. Cauchy distribution - Definition and c.f.
