Interpretation: Custom PMF, discrete uniform, Bernoulli, or binomial: inspect support and trial structure before choosing.
Approximation safeguard: Treat the comparison model as approximate and inspect its error against the exact model.

Dataset provenance
Original synthetic data generated for STATLAB Academy. No textbook data used.
Interpretation safeguard
Never present the Poisson approximation as exact; compare with the exact binomial whenever feasible.
بازاندیشی
Name the random variable, support, parameters, units, dependence assumptions, and one limitation.
دستیار
Coach me through Poisson Approximation to the Binomial by asking about X, support, parameters, assumptions, probability notation, exact versus approximate status, and interpretation. Do not provide a quiz answer before submission or write my final capstone recommendation.
