Geometric Distribution

The geometric random variable with parameter p(0,1) can be defined as the number of trials required to obtain a success where the probability of success on each trial is p . Thus,

p(k;p)=(1p)k1pk1F(x;p)=1(1p)xx1G(q;p)=log(1q)log(1p)μ=1pμ2=1pp2γ1=2p1pγ2=p26p+61p.
M(t)=pet(1p)
