The geometric distribution can be used to explore how long you have to wait for a given event to occur, given the probability of that event. The probability, p, defaults to 0.5. We speak of X being randomly chosen with geometric probability from the set of values {min, min + scale, min + 2scale, ..., } where min and scale default to 0 and 1.
