Dice: An independant thesis confirming their randomness

[geigerm]

nonono... TI-83+ is a graphing calculator... what it calls "basic" code is just a list of commands that you can select from, that doesn't really resemble actual basic at all. Fun for programming games to play in math class, though.

Ah, but can you program it to simulate the fantastic random dice generating function e_i_pi has described in such breathtaking detail? If not, the calculator was clearly a waste of your money.

I know TI-83 BASIC, and it functions VERY similarly to real BASIC, with a few additions for calculator-specific functions, and a use of : instead of ten-based line numbers.

that's cool to know... maybe I should go try my hand at some real BASIC now?

[TaCktiX]

Nah, go learn Visual Basic, more specifically the .NET variant. It's a very robust language thanks to the .NET framework.

Remember my original statement? GML, and TI-83 basic. That's all the experience I have. I have no clue what you're talking about.

For those interested in some more horseplay

[Georgerx7di]

the problem is that there is a 10^-26% chance that you could roll a negative 1. : )

E_i_pi, you've clearly solved the conundrum

Just to verify, I've now changed my avatar to your graph. We will see if it does the job!

What does Q.E.D. stand for?

Q.E.D. stands for Quorn Engine Developments





I just love horsepower... you can never have too much of it...

Which is lots more fun that random math confiming thesis stuff...

Beware the awe-inspiring power of that image. You may laugh now, but you won't be laughing when you roll triple cows.

really great stuff

[Jeff Hardy]

knowing this, is there something i can do to get better dice?

*sigh* I dumbed it down as much as I could. Go back, re-read, study up, and with enough patience and understanding, defence will almost hardly ever maybe never roll 6s again. Maybe

There are loads of easy ways to get completely random numbers...so I don't know what all the fuss is about. There are companies who print massive books full of completely random lists of numbers, you could use a high functioning calculator...I"m sure that there are other ways too...---C

As you can see, I've gone from sergeant to major, clearly the avatar works

[reggie_mac]

So .. if i use it in my avatar, put it as my signature, make a map using it, play against freemiums and sit in an empty paddock im not only sure to win, but im going to populate my paddock with free cows too? Sweet, free milk!

got milk?

That's the best news I've heard all day. Cangrats.

i like the counting of 1, 2, omega, cow


look @ my avatar
