In the Level I CFA curriculum there are, at the moment, these probability distributions that candidates must understand and be able to use: Discrete distributions Binomial Uniform Continuous distributions Chi-square (χ2) F Lognormal Normal Student’s t Uniform This article will describe discrete and continuous distributions in general and how to use them; the links, above, […]

Before reading this article, make sure that you have read the article on probability distributions in general. The binomial probability distribution is a discrete distribution: it has only a finite number of possible values that it can take. To understand the binomial distribution, you first have to understand the idea of a Bernoulli trial. A […]
