All you need to add to make the ninja story work is to randomly rotate the pizza after it is cut (which clearly has no effect on the size of the resulting piece). It is then possible to select any chord of the circle -- though the probability density would be different than in the other two methods.
- dnautics 11y agoThe probability density would not be different.
- amalcon 11y agoRotating doesn't alter the probability density of the length function, and I suppose that's one reading of what I wrote, but it's not what I meant. This method has different probability density from the random-center and random-endpoints methods. That's the whole point of the exercise: you get different probability density across the chord space depending on how you select from it.
