Titel: On the number of consecutive successes in Bernoulli trials. (Examensarbete)
Sammanfattning: In a sequence of independent Bernoulli trials a success occurs in trial k with probability pk. In this thesis the total number of r consecutive successes in n trials, rRn, is studied. Recursions for the probability generating function, the falling factorial moments and probabilities are found. The case with r=3 and pk=λ/(μ+k-1) is studied in more detail.
