Discrete Probability Distributions

  1. Create a vector w containing the integers .

  2. Assume W has the geometric distribution with parameter . Evaluate the probability for each of the values w in w. Save these values in a vector fw.

  3. Evaluate the function for each of the values w in w using the S function cumsum. Save these values in a vector Fw. What does represent?

  4. Using your vectors w, fw, and Fw, make a scatterplot of the geometric distribution function with parameter .
