Tutorial on large deviations for the binomial distribution.
We present, in an easy to use form, the large deviation theory of the binomial distribution: how to approximate the probability of k or more successes in n independent trials, each with success probability p, when the specified fraction of successes, a identical to k/n, satisfies 0 less than p less than a less than 1.
