Talk:Negative hypergeometric distribution

The PDF formula refers to the parameter n, which is undefined. This is probably a typo. --Erel Segal (talk) 15:15, 23 March 2015 (CET)

Typo, indeed. It should be $N$, not $n$. Thank you. Would you like to fix it yourself? --Boris Tsirelson (talk) 18:08, 23 March 2015 (CET)

The equation was an image I could not edit, so I replaced it with a latex equation - I hope I did this right. --Erel Segal (talk) 20:31, 24 March 2015 (CET)

Yes, this is one of our problems; you could look at Help:HowTo EoM, or just see some new articles made in TeX. Anyway, I did it a bit nicer. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 08:17, 25 March 2015 (CET)

Yes, this looks much nicer. While we are at it: I did not understand why this formula is correct. Can you please add an intuitive explanation? Also, I didn't understand the formula at the bottom, connecting the negative-hypergeometric with the hypergeometric. Can you explain this too? --Erel Segal (talk) 08:25, 25 March 2015 (CET)

Wow... not now, maybe later. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 08:30, 25 March 2015 (CET)
