I am trying to calculate the following: 1000 random digits are generated. What is the probability that digit 5 appears at most 93 times? I think this is gamma with lambda = 100, but I can't set it up in a meaningful way. Thanks! (Not homework, practice)
quick gamma distribution problem

0Cna you argue why it is gamma and not a binomial distribution for instance? – 2011-11-02

0@Raskolnikov OP probably intended Poisson distribution, instead of gamma – 2011-11-02

3@Raskolnikov Did you realize that you were arguing with the user "\*pro\*gamma"? =) – 2011-11-02
