I tried, man.
He keeps dodging the question.

He got really close though!

The Central Limit Theorem is a very important theorem in statistics. It says this: if you sample a distribution, the mean of that sample is is a normal distribution.

At 1 PPM you will get 1 proc per minute on average, assuming an infinite number of weapon swings.

You can convert the sides of the dice to DoT Damages across ticks:

[Roll 1 = 40 damage, Roll 2 = 64, Roll 3 = 88, Roll 4 = 112, Roll 5 = 136, Roll 6 = 160]

Basically you are most likely to roll a 3.5, which means rolling a 3 or a 4. [88 + 112] / 2 = 100 / 36 seconds = 2.77 DPS on average.

This is what I am doing for all of the DPS calculations in my JBB example. Bcbrown is trying to use a Binomial Distribution specifically for procs because he wants to lower the DPS of the weapon proc to strengthen his argument.
