Say 2 indentical bags contain different numbers of swear and tongue counters.
A bag is chosen AT RANDOM and a single counter removed from it without looking.

bag A : 2swear   3tongue

Bag B : 3 swear 4tongue



If the counter was swear what was the probability that the bag was Bag A?? dunno

I got it it's 2499! 10000! = [10000/3125]+[10000/625]+[10000/125]+[10000/25]+[10000/5]=a number with 2499 0s

Thank you

Hey!

I searched floor funtion, so basically it just "round it down to the whole number" as in my words

Is that somewhat correct?

Also I have win quite a couple times where I played against other people and won by black.

Well I think the computer is smarter than the most of us here. The software programmers programmed the chess software to try their best and win us

I agree with Xyz, once the infinite decimal (0.9999) gets multiplied, it's not infinite any more, so
0.9999 X 10= 9.999  ( 1 "9" less)≠  9.9999
9.999-0.9999=8.9991
8.9991÷9= 0.9999

P.S. This works for any amount of nines
