Can someone tell me what B(n,p) means regarding shinies?
Sep. 9, 2020I have no idea if that makes sense, but here I go.
I’m usingthis siteto help me track my shiny odds, and I notice something called B(n,p). What is that? What does it mean, and what is it telling me?

B(n,p)is a standard notation for thebinomial distribution. Without getting into the maths, it is telling you what your chance of getting a Shiny is givennattempts andpchance of getting a Shiny in each attempt.
The field below that is telling you how much highernneeds to be forB(n,p)to be at least 90%.
Well, it appears to be something calledbinomial distribution? It’s a math thing that I don’t really understand, but yeah, that’s what I could find.
Hope this helps! :)
