What are you tring to say?
> The probability of having a 2:1 ratio of heads/tails - at some point - in an infinite sequence of fair flips is 1, is it not?
Yes, but "probability = 1" absolutely does not mean "will happen eventually" in pure mathematics. Infinity is weird like that.
- LegionMammal978 1y agoThe probability is less than 1, and in fact it exponentially goes to 0, since the halting condition can be modeled as a biased random walk [0]. [0] https://wiki.bbchallenge.org/wiki/Antihydra#Trajectory https://wiki.bbchallenge.org/wiki/Antihydra#Trajectory
