Probability,Intuition and a Spreadsheet |
|
| Authors: | Alan Graham |
| Abstract: | Probability simulations are a useful way of helping students to challenge their intuitions about chance events. However, tossing dice and coins can be slow and messy, and may mask underlying long-run patterns. This article provides examples of probability simulations on a spreadsheet which overcome some of these difficulties. |
