Re: Acme Fixer @ Geoff

He's talking about probability of a result for the independant flips, not sequential results or otherwise. The chance of H or T per *single flip* is 50%. Always. Even if you flip the coin 10 billion times, you always have 50/50 chance. The chance of 10 billion heads in a row though... time for a calulator and a very small number :P

It's amazing how many people trip up on this... I learned statistics in year 10 at GCSE and remember complaining that I'd never need that information in "the real world". For reference, if anyone cares: http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize/maths/datahandlingih/probabilityirev1.shtml
