Description: returns the values of the density function of a binomial distribution with parameters n and p for the elements of an array x.

Usage: y = pdfbin2(x, n, p)
Input:
x k x 1 array, k>=1, input elements
n scalar or k x 1 array, contains the parameter n of the binomial distribution
p scalar or k x 1 array, contains the parameter p of the binomial distribution
Output:
y k x 1 array, contains the values of the density function of the specified binomial distribution for the elements of x
