That is a multinomial, not a binomial distribution. A binomial
distribution can have only two values, success or failure.

Oh, I think I get what you mean -- you are drawing repeated samples from a binomial with n trials and you are counting the number of successes for each.
Yes. Exactly. Sorry if my post was unclear. cheers, Rolf Turner
