<!-- <exercise>
<statement>
<p>
Suppose a coin has an unknown probability of coming up heads.
We perform the experiment in <m>n</m> independent trials, during which
it takes <m>k_1, k_2, \dotsc, k_n</m> flips to see our first heads in
each trial.
Find a "common sense" MLE formula for the geometric distribution.
</p>
</statement>
<hint>
<p>
You <em>could</em> set up a calculation analogous to
<xref ref="example-exponential-MLE"/>.
Or, you could consider <xref ref="fact-MLE-binomial"/>.
