*Where 'nf' is the number of failures.
 +
*Where 'ns' is the number of successes on an individual trial
 +
*And 'ps' is the probability of a success.
 +
==Description==
 +
This function gives the negative binomial distribution.
 +
Negative binomial ditrbution is the discrete probability distribution with the fixed probability of success.
 +
It is also called Pascal distribution.
 +
This is the statistical experiment with the following conditions:
 +
#This experiment consists of a sequence of independent trials.
 +
#Each trial represents only two results(Success or failure)
 +
#The probability of success is constant from trial to trial
 +
#The trials are independent; that is, the outcome on one trial does not affect the outcome on other trials.
 +
#The experiment continues until r successes are observed,  where r is a specified positive integer.
 +
*The random variable of  x = the number of failures that precede the rth success;
 +
*x is called a negative binomial random variable because, in contrast to the
 +
binomial random variable, the number of successes is fixed and the number of trials is random.
 +
*Then  probability mass function of the negative binomial distribution is:
 +
nb(x;r,p)=(x+r-1 p^r (1-p)^x 
 +
                    r-1)       
 +
*For example:If a fair coin is tossed repeatedly, what is the probability that at least 10 tosses are required.
 +
to obtain heads 8 times
 +
*This function will give the result as error when:
 +
#Any argument is nonnumeric
 +
#If ps<0 or ps>1
 +
#If nf<0 or ns<1
