ernst heinz had a formula for the error of such a match based on the number of
wins draws and losses - i think i have it somewhere, but i'd have to look it up.
of course, in this case, it is clear that you cannot say which program is
stronger. 55-45 or 60-40 would be the threshold to significance i guess.
