binomial_distribution() : binomial_distribution(1) {} | (1) | (since C++11)
explicit binomial_distribution( IntType t, double p = 0.5 ); | (2) | (since C++11)
explicit binomial_distribution( const param_type& params ); | (3) | (since C++11)

Constructs a new distribution object. (2) uses `t` and `p` as the distribution parameters. (3) uses `params` as the distribution parameters.

### Parameters

t | - | the t distribution parameter (number of trials)
p | - | the p distribution parameter (probability of a trial generating true)
params | - | the distribution parameter set

### Notes

Requires that 0 ≤ p ≤ 1 and 0 ≤ t.

### Defect reports

The following behavior-changing defect reports were applied retroactively to previously published C++ standards.

DR | Applied to | Behavior as published | Correct behavior
--- | --- | --- | ---
P0935R0 | C++11 | default constructor was explicit | made implicit
