--------------------------------------

             Summary: BinomialDistribution deals with degenerate cases 
incorrectly
                 Key: MATH-1136
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MATH-1136
             Project: Commons Math
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.3
            Reporter: Aleksei Dievskii
            Priority: Minor
         Attachments: BINOMIAL_DEGENERATE.patch

The following calculation returns false results:

{{
new BinomialDistribution(0, 0.01).logProbability(0)
}}

It evaluates to Double.NaN when it should be 0 (cf., for example, "dbinom(0, 0, 
0.01, log=T)" in R).

I will attach a patch dealing with the problem shortly.
