The video tutorial covers Bernoulli trials and the binomial distribution. It explains Bernoulli trials as simple probability experiments with two outcomes, success and failure, and how they can be represented as discrete random variables. The tutorial provides examples using coin flips, card draws, and voter approval. It introduces the binomial distribution as a sum of Bernoulli trials and explains how to calculate probabilities, mean, and variance. The video also demonstrates constructing probability histograms for binomial distributions.
