The rational generating functions of the probabilities and cumulative probabilities of the geometric distribution of order k are investigated. All the roots of each denominator are rigorously proved to be simple if p k/(k + 1). It is also shown that the distribution of the waiting time for (k1, k2)-events has the similar property. The results are applied to numerical calculations of probability and cumulative probability of the distributions. Further, explicit expressions for the probability functions of the geometric distributions of order 2,3, and 4 are given by using partial fraction expansion of the generating functions. Moreover, as an example that the denominator of a rational generating function has rnultiple roots. the negative binomial distribution of order 2 with parameter (r, p) are studied. Explicit expressions of the probability function and the cumulative distribution function are provided. They are also useful for numerical calculations.
