<p>
The Bernoulli distribution is a discrete distribution of the outcome of
a single trial with only two results, 0 (failure) or 1 (success), with
a probability of success p.
</p>
<p>
The Bernoulli distribution is the simplest building block on which other
discrete distributions of sequences of independent Bernoulli trials can
be based.
</p>
<p>
The Bernoulli is the binomial distribution (k = 1, p) with only one trial.
