Sorry. i have to disagree. 10 events of samething can tell us much. It depends if the events contain quality or if you only starr on the quantity. if you throw a coin e.g. it would be quantity if you only see a flow-chart with the results of each throw. WHen you see me rotating my coin, and maybe that i can make it fall >80 time on head, you will maybe get extra information by watching me. The same with a chess game. There is something in the game you cannot measure. Like a human beeing is more than weigths and size and age. This - what is in a human beeing - influences the inner and outer world. If the quantity is good, but the quality inside is shit, than the best looking girl is only a dead-toy, a puppet without beauty.... I understand that this is difficult to understand. But why forget about the quality, the content of something, when it is visible, feelable, loveable. The same with music , chess and life. There is something you cannot measure. But this is as important (at least for me) and it helps to estimate about the future... Better than any quantity statistic can do.
