		In probability and statistics, a Bernoulli process is a discrete-time stochastic process consisting of a sequence of independent random variables taking values over two letters.
		In other words, a Bernoulli process is a sequence of independent identically distributed Bernoulli trials.
		A Bernoulli process is then a probability space $(\Omega, Pr)$ together with a random variable X over the set $\{0,1\}$ , so that for every $\omega \in\Omega$ , one has $X_i(\omega)=1$ with probability p and $X_i(\omega)=0$ with probability 1-p.

		For a Bernoulli trial, however, we make the outcomes into a random variable by assigning the number 0 to one outcome and the number 1 to the other.
		A Bernoulli trial has a probability distribution that can be described by the probability of a success, usually called "p".
		Each trial can be classified into one of k outcomes, with the random variable defined as the number of times that each of the k possibilities happens.

	Binomial distribution - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In probability theory and statistics, the binomial distribution is the discrete probability distribution of the number of successes in a sequence of n independent yes/no experiments, each of which yields success with probability p.
		Such a success/failure experiment is also called a Bernoulli experiment or Bernoulli trial.
		However, the k successes can occur anywhere among the n trials, and there are C(n, k) different ways of distributing k successes in a sequence of n trials.

		Traditionally in the jargon of probability theory one of the two possible outcomes of a Bernoulli Trial is called a success and the other one a failure.
		The symbols for these three are, of course, r, p, and N. The standard notation for expressing the probability of r successes in N trials with p as probability of a success is P(r: p, N).

		A Bernoulli experiment is a random experiment, the outcome of which can be classified in but one of two mutually exclusive and exhaustive ways, mainly, success or failure (e.g., female or male, life or death, nondefective or defective).
		A sequence of Bernoulli trials occurs when a Bernoulli experiment is performed several independent times so that the probability of success, say, p, remains the same from trial to trial.
		In a sequence of Bernoulli trials we are often interested in the total number of successes and not in the order of their occurrence.
