Multinomial Distribution
Let a set of random variates 
, 
, ..., 
have a probability function
 |
(1)
|
where 
are nonnegative integers such that
 |
(2)
|
and 
are constants with 
and
 |
(3)
|
Then the joint distribution of 
, ..., 
is a multinomial distribution and 
is given by the corresponding coefficient of the multinomial series
 |
(4)
|
In the words, if 
, 
, ..., 
are mutually exclusive events with 
, ..., 
. Then the probability that 
occurs 
times, ..., 
occurs 
times is given by

The mean and variance of 
are
The covariance of 
and 
is
