How does the Negative Binomial Calculator work?

r = target successes, p = success probability Then: Mean = r/p, Variance = r(1-p)/p² Then: Counts trials until r successes Then: Extends binomial (which counts successes in n trials).

Can you give an example of how to use the Negative Binomial Calculator?

Example: Input r=5, p=0.5 gives a result of E(X)=5.
