F someone tells us that a random variable is described by a Binomial or Poisson distribution, it becomes a very simple matter (presuming we know the key parameters) to be able to then predict the likelihood that any particular combination of values will be seen in a dataset containing that variable. Sometimes, though, we don’t know what kind of distribution our variable will fit, or we don’t know enough to be able to identify the key parameters needed to make accurate predictions. Part of the analysis we routinely do with datasets is to identify whether or not any of the variables included are Binomial or Poisson in nature. Discuss why it can be helpful to do this? Discuss how you would identify which variables in the dataset would benefit from such analysis. Does it provide benefit to name the distribution that applies even if you can't precisely identify the needed parameters for that distribution?
