I've done some study.
And made a couple of loops to compare the dbinom() and rbinom()
Here are the results:
The instructor only asked for 1000 trials so its not that accurate. but its
close to it.
> for(x in c(1:10))
+ {print(dbinom(x,10,.25)) }
[1] 0.1877117
[1] 0.2815676
[1] 0.2502823
[1] 0.145998
[1] 0.0583992
[1] 0.016222
[1] 0.003089905
[1] 0.0003862381
[1] 2.861023e-05
[1] 9.536743e-07

Thanks for pointing me to the rbinom() function
