Why can a function not be a probability mass function?
A function cannot be a probability mass function (PMF) if it violates the properties of a PMF. A PMF must assign a non-negative probability to each possible outcome of a discrete random variable, and the sum of probabilities for all possible outcomes must be equal to 1. If a function does not satisfy these properties, it cannot be considered a PMF.
What is the binomial theorem formula for probability?
I expect you mean the probability mass function (pmf). Please see the right sidebar in the linked page.
The mode is the largest value in a symmetric distribution?
Yes- the highest probability value is the mode. Let me clarify this answer: For a probability mass function for a discrete variables, the mode is the value with the highest probability as shown on the y axis. For a probability density function for continuous variables, the mode is the value with the highest probability density as shown on the y-axis.
What the difference between a probability distribution and a probability function?
None. The full name is the Probability Distribution Function (pdf).
What the difference and relationship between a probability distribution and a probability function?
They are the same. The full name is the Probability Distribution Function (pdf).

What is the difference between a probability mass function and a probability density function?
The probability mass function is used to characterize the distribution of discrete random variables, while the probability density function is used to characterize the distribution of absolutely continuous random variables.

What is the difference between probability distribution and probability density function?
A probability density function assigns a probability value for each point in the domain of the random variable. The probability distribution assigns the same probability to subsets of that domain.
What can be determined using theoretical probability?
The probability distribution function.
Is Probability a function?
Yes.
Could f be a probability density function?
No. f is a letter of the Roman alphabet. It cannot be a probability density function.
What gives the probability of each random variable?
The marginal probability distribution function.
How do you find probability from probability generating function?
you can just ask the question on ask .com
