how to plot the binomial distribution in matlab

To plot the binomial distribution in MATLAB, you can use the binopdf function to compute the probability density function (PDF) and the stem function to plot the results.

Here's an example code snippet that plots the binomial distribution with parameters n=10 and p=0.5, for the values of k ranging from 0 to 10:

main.m
n = 10; % number of trials
p = 0.5; % probability of success

k = 0:n; % possible number of successes
binom = binopdf(k, n, p); % binomial probability density function

stem(k, binom); % plot the binomial distribution
xlabel('Number of successes')
ylabel('Probability density')

This will generate a stem plot of the binomial distribution, where the x-axis corresponds to the number of successes and the y-axis corresponds to the probability density. The resulting plot should look like this:
