Experiment and Office Hours

— by

Hello mathematicians, puzzlers, and other curious people!

Some new group classes are coming soon — keep watching for further details and let me know if there’s anything you’re hoping to see, by the way — and as part of that I have some planning to do today. Just like professors make their office hours available for students to stop by and see what they’re working on or ask for help, I thought I’d do the same, but then it occurred to me that a person sitting as a desk is not the most interesting live stream. So, I’m also putting a probability experiment going to demonstrate the Law of Large Numbers, which states that, that the more times you try out a probability experiment and collect data, the more your observed empirical probability (some people say experimental probability) resembles the experiment’s classical probability (some people say calculated probability).
