## Binomial, poisson, and gaussian dstributions

bincomp.m Graphical comparison of the binomial, Poisson, and Gaussian distributions. The procedure calls for binomial parameters $n,p$ , determines a reasonable range of evaluation points and plots on the same graph the binomial distribution function, thePoisson distribution function, and the gaussian distribution function with the adjustment called the “continuity correction.”

## Setup for simple random variables

If a simple random variable X is in canonical form, the distribution consists of the coefficients of the indicator funtions (the values of X ) and the probabilities of the corresponding events. If X is in a primitive form other than canonical, the csort operation is applied to the coefficients of the indicator functions and the probabilities of the corresponding events to obtainthe distribution. If $Z=g\left(X\right)$ and X is in a primitive form, then the value of Z on the event in the partition associated with t i is $g\left({t}_{i}\right)$ . The distribution for Z is obtained by applying csort to the $g\left({t}_{i}\right)$ and the p i . Similarly, if $Z=g\left(X,Y\right)$ and the joint distribution is available, the value $g\left({t}_{i},{u}_{j}\right)$ is associated with $P\left(X={t}_{i},Y={u}_{j}\right)$ . The distribution for Z is obtained by applying csort to the matrix of values and the corresponding matrix of probabilities.

what is fullerene does it is used to make bukky balls
are you nano engineer ?
s.
fullerene is a bucky ball aka Carbon 60 molecule. It was name by the architect Fuller. He design the geodesic dome. it resembles a soccer ball.
Tarell
what is the actual application of fullerenes nowadays?
Damian
That is a great question Damian. best way to answer that question is to Google it. there are hundreds of applications for buck minister fullerenes, from medical to aerospace. you can also find plenty of research papers that will give you great detail on the potential applications of fullerenes.
Tarell
what is the Synthesis, properties,and applications of carbon nano chemistry
Mostly, they use nano carbon for electronics and for materials to be strengthened.
