Statement
Let [ilmath]n\in\mathbb{N}_{\ge 1} [/ilmath] and [ilmath]p\in[0,1]\subseteq[/ilmath][ilmath]\mathbb{R} [/ilmath] and:
- [ilmath]X\sim[/ilmath][ilmath]\text{Bin} [/ilmath][ilmath](n,p)[/ilmath] - so [ilmath]X[/ilmath] is a Binomial random variable
We will calculate the Mdm of [ilmath]X[/ilmath], [ilmath]\E{\big\vert X-\E{X}\big\vert} [/ilmath]
Proof
- [ilmath]\Mdm(X)[/ilmath]
