Each trial consisted of 100 simulated coin flips, the "score" is
how many turned up heads. I am currently on vacation and don't have
the code with me, so typing from memory. The basic outline is
array[100] filled with 0,
for counter=1 to 10000000
{
total=0;
for count2=1 to 100
if(flip()==heads) total++;
array[total]++
}
for count=50 to 100
if(array[count]>0)
print "out of 10000000 trials, " array[count] " scored " count
