Hi;
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.
I am willing to wager that over 75% of the new words that appeared were nothing more than spelling errors that caught on.

Re: Is this cool with you?
Hi,
Thanks!
Try the problem I was attempting, |sum( a ) - sum( b )| instead of sum( |a - b| ), I think that's more difficult.

Hi,
Hi gAr;
Yes, he is considering (i,j) and (j,i) to be identical, so he's done the summation like that.

Does that cover your question in post #1481?
Hi anonimnystefy;
The example of how to some the die that I gave. Do you want the correct example?

I don't understand you. I used a GF to sum the die.

Re: Is this cool with you?
Hi;
This is what the problem requires you to do in pseudo code:
1)Pick two random integers in the interval [1,6].
2)Subtract them and take the absolute value.
3)Take the average of all of those values.
4) Print the answer.

Re: Is this cool with you?
Hi bobbym,
No, see the code I posted in #1461 to understand what I mean.
I'm considering 2 six faced dice, thrown n times, and we need to calculate the expected value of

Wouldn't that be 0?

Re: Is this cool with you?
But why do that. I took each possible outcome, multiplied each of them with its pribability of happening and summed over.

Re: Is this cool with you?
Hi;
Because as I was explaining to gAr, I made a mistake in showing that example in the original post. You sum the die pairwise.

So, what should I get for (1,5),(5,1)?

Re: Is this cool with you?
Hi,
Hi gAr;
Wouldn't that be 0?
No, just like in the example, we may get for four throws |(1+2+3+4) - (2+3+4+5)| = 4. We will get different values for each trial, and 0 is one among them. So what's the expected value?

Re: Is this cool with you?
Hi gAr;
Okay, I will work on it because I do not have a quick answer. I am being called away from my computer, see you later.

Hi anonimnystefy,
I have already answered it, 35 / 18 for 6 faced dice.

That is the expected value of the difference?

Hi gAr
I tthink I might have been doing the other problem you mentioned. The absolute difference of the sums. What do you get for that one?
