The fields of probability and statistics often study situations where events are labeled as "successes" or "failures". For example, a Bernoulli trial is a random experiment with exactly two possible outcomes, "success" and "failure", in which the probability of success is the same every time the experiment is conducted.

[16] However, 50-70% of reengineering projects are either failures or do not achieve significant benefit. [17]
Different texts (and even different parts of this article) adopt slightly different definitions for the negative binomial distribution. They can be distinguished by whether the support starts at k = 0 or at k = r, whether p denotes the probability of a success or of a failure, and whether r represents success or failure, [1] so identifying the specific parametrization used is crucial in any ...
This article should maybe even be deleted, The Xbox is a commercial failure (circa $1 billion lost) but it doesnt belong on the list, while the Sega Game Gear was commerically successful and returned a profit but still wasnt successful enough for Sega to create a successor so is considered by many a failure despite being a Commercial success.
Performing a probabilistic risk assessment starts with a set of initiating events that change the state or configuration of the system. [3] An initiating event is an event that starts a reaction, such as the way a spark (initiating event) can start a fire that could lead to other events (intermediate events) such as a tree burning down, and then finally an outcome, for example, the burnt tree ...

Failure is the social concept of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and is usually viewed as the opposite of success. [1] The criteria for failure depends on context, and may be relative to a particular observer or belief system.
