Roulette - Introduction and interactive resources   COURSE_COMMUNITIES_JAVASCRIPT_ID


Course Topic(s): Probability | Games of Chance | Discrete Distributions, general

This segment is part of the Virtual Labs in Probability and Statistics games of chance. The game and some bets are explained and the probabilities developed. Explanations for bets on 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, and 18 numbers are explained. Interestingly, all bets have the same expected value but have different variances. Links to the interactive resources are embedded in the expository material at this site.
