Jun 15, 2013 at 19:00 comment added Scortchi No, just my guess. More standard would be to use Greek letters for parameters, capital Latin letters for random variables & small Latin letters for their observed outcomes. In any case, $p$ was introduced without definition.
Jun 15, 2013 at 18:53 comment added gui11aume Ah, I did not think about this. Is it something standard?
Jun 15, 2013 at 17:40 comment added Scortchi I think the OP is distinguishing between (small) $p$ the statistic $\frac{\sum{y}}{n}$ & (big) $P$ the binomial parameter, though perhaps not.
