Bernoulli ProcessIn probability and statistics, a Bernoulli process is a discrete-time stochastic process consisting of a finite or infinite sequence of independent random variables X1, X2, X3,..., such that - For each i, the value of Xi is either 0 or 1;
- For all values of i, the probability that Xi = 1 is the same number p.
In other words, a Bernoulli process is a sequence of independent identically distributed Bernoulli trials. The two possible values of each Xi are often called "success" and "failure", so that, when expressed as a number, 0 or 1, the value is said to be the number of successes on the ith "trial". The individual success/failure variables Xi are also called Bernoulli trials. Random variables associated with the Bernoulli process include
