>Did you know that if I flip a perfectly fair coin 100 times, the probability of >100 tails in a row is exactly the same as the other 2^101 -1 possible outcomes? No , I really didn't know that :-) Are you sure you chose the right model when doing your calculations ? Sure some certain outcome like 99 tails and the other one ( I don't remember the name of at the moment ) arriving at 43rd throw are equal to 100 tails but this is not exactly the question here , is it ? pete ( the remembering his maths studies sometimes .. )
