How does a binomial distribution differ from a normal distribution?

  • Binomial distribution is continuous, while normal is discrete
  • Both are continuous distributions
  • Both are discrete distributions
  • Normal distribution is continuous, while binomial is discrete
A binomial distribution is discrete, meaning it only takes on integer values on a countable range, and it represents the number of successes in a fixed number of independent Bernoulli trials with a given success probability. A normal distribution is continuous, and it is often used as a first approximation to the binomial distribution, when the number of trials is large.
