Compute the binomial probabilities, the Poisson approximation, and the normal approximation for the following values of N

Question:

Compute the binomial probabilities, the Poisson approximation, and the normal approximation for the following values of N and p:

(a) N = 10, p = .5

(b) N = 10, p = .05

(c) N = 20, p = .5

(d) N = 20, p = .05.

Comment on the relative merit of the two approximations in each case.
