Exercise

Take the binomial distribution for a spin

It turns out that the generative model you ran last exercise already has a name. It's called the binomial process or the binomial distribution. In R you can use the rbinom function to simulate data from a binomial distribution. The rbinom function takes three arguments:

n The number of times you want to run the generative model
size The number of trials. (For example, the number of zombies you're giving the drug.)
prob The underlying proportion of success as a number between 0.0 and 1.0.

Replicate the result from the last exercise using the rbinom function: Simulate one count of the number of cured zombies out of a 100 treated, where the underlying proportion of success is 42%.
