“Odds: 1 in 16 (15 to 1)”
Probably, but so far not so good. We had it all down and out
of four of us flipping we figured we flipped about 100 times
each, we were even flopping one at a time to see if we could do it in sequence. After four hours some one did it, 6 in
a row. 4, 3 in a rows, 1 four in a row and one 6 in a row.
Conclusion, the one 5 in a row we got was in the 6 out of a
conservative estimate of 400 flips.
So I figure the odds to be 1 in 400.
2^6 = 64 x 6.25 = 400
“1 in 64 isn’t a miracle, it’s clustering.”
Misuse of the science. It can only be clustering if every flip was with the same coin in sequence as you suggested the 1K coin test.
“Odds aren’t really cumulative”
The overall chance/odds are cumulative when compared against differing coins at different times. However, each toss separately is 50/50.
I’m not attacking her “looks” per se. What I meant was that she was glowering at the camera and the audience and screaming at them. He gaze was so cold that it gave me chills. I really questioned her sanity at that moment.
We already know enough about her lack of character. It hardly seserves any more words.
That’s why I’m backing Cruz. Character. (and brains)
No, it’s still clustering. Clustering is random results bucking the statistical expectations. You expect somebody predicting coin tosses (including of multiple coins) to get the right answer 50% of the time. By getting it right 6 times in a row they bucked statistical expectations, but small sample sizes have a tend to buck statistical expectations, and some people read too much into it:

She sold her soul to da debbil.
No one ever guesses pi.
HA-HA
“90 precincts “lost their votes”
Can anyone figure how SIX DISTRICTS came to a TIE!!

Welcome to the New world order Bernie- you were a loyal
Communist First an demon rat second... Your crap now
Is that Luca Brazzi or own Clemezna
Huh?
I wonder if the witch would buy me a lotto ticket.
She wants the White House, we want her in prison, how about a compromise, we turn the White House into a prison and inter her there for life! Solitary confinement in the Oval Office. Sure, we’d have to find a new place for Presidents to live, but I’m sure they’d never get the smell out after Obama anyway. Win/win.
Stocks, bonds, coin tosses...Hillary! done got magic in her!
The Obama stink: Weed, butts, BO and “pimp oil”. Yeah, I wouldn’t live there after this latest defilement.
Pick a number from 1 to whatever. I always pick pi 3.14159... and no one every gueses my number. I know, it was implied in your post we were talking about whole numbers.
Lol! Gotcha!
