concerned with the probability of obtaining any of these sequences, meaning the probability of obtaining one of them must be added times, hence .

In creating reference tables for binomial distribution probability, usually, the table is filled in up to values. This is because for , the probability can be calculated by its complement as

Looking at the expression as a function of , there is a value that maximizes it. This value can be found by calculating

and comparing it to 1. There is always an integer that satisfies
