I read "almost as many" as "not quite as many". In other words, fewer. My mental model is that an unbiased random stream of 1's and 0's should converge on 50%

I read "almost as many" as "not quite as many". In other words, fewer.
My mental model is that an unbiased random stream of 1's and 0's should converge on 50% 1's and 50% 0's over time, not 49% 1's and 51% 0's.
Looks like it's a language ambiguity thing I'm not quite getting.
- madeofpalk 3y agoTo converge on 50% implies 49%\51% prior. Almost even.
- ruune 3y agoOver time, it should be almost 50/50, yeah. What if you got 10000001 random numbers? There's no way it's exactly 50/50 with an uneven amount. It's almost 50/50
