How to test a hypothesis about a binomial distribution on SPSS?
I have to complete a stat take-home assignment for which any of Minitab and SPSS is permitted.
But there is a question in the assignment that I have to conduct a hypothesis test based on a sample~Bin(n,p), in which only n and p but no actual data are given.
Even though in Minitab there is an option to input the parameters and proceed the test without having to specify the actual data I am unable to find a solution in SPSS.
But I love the output of SPSS which is easy to interpret and understand.
Please help me to solve my problem
(I use Minitab 15 and SPSS 17)

If you open any dataset in SPSS, you will test the null hypothesis by running Chi-square analysis. Make any hypothesis, like there is a correlation between n and p, then click on Analysis, statistics,Chi-Square, and on that screen also unclick anything that has a check-mark in it. Then click ok. Put any variable in the Dependent variable box, and any variable in the independent variable box. Then click ok. You will get three tables. The last one is the Chi-square table. If any figure in the Assym. sig.(2) column is less than .05, then the null hypothesis is rejected, and the hypothesis is accepted (or proven).
