What is Geometric Distribution?

A Geometric Distribution is a probability distribution for a discrete random variable that describes the number of Bernoulli trials (experiments with only two possible outcomes, such as success or failure) that must be conducted in order for a success to occur.
The probability of success in each trial is denoted as "p" and is a parameter of the distribution. The probability of the k-th trial being the first success is given by the probability mass function: P(X=k) = ((1-p)^(k-1))*p

The Geometric Distribution is a special case of the negative binomial distribution. It is used in modeling the number of failures before the first success in a sequence of Bernoulli trials.
