Re: Is this cool with you?
Hi,
I did not get a closed form for that yet, just some estimates.
I think you have solved it, just divide your answer by 123456787654321.

Re: Is this cool with you?
I don't think it is that simple. I have to find a reason to divide by 123456787654321.

Re: Is this cool with you?
The question asks for the average, it was not clear earlier.

Re: Is this cool with you?
Hi gAr
I see what the problem was. If I am correct, we understood that we were asked for the expected sum, not the excpected difference.

Re: Is this cool with you?
Hi,
Actually, we did expected sum of the absolute differences.

Yes. It wasn't clear that the boss wanted the expected difference.

Hi;
It is clear that A and C should be fired. That is the question. The constant 123456787654321 is a red herring. It does not even matter.

Yup. I still csnnot shake of the feeling that A in your puzzles represents anonimnystefy.

Re: Is this cool with you?
Hi anonimnystefy;
A is a real person but you are a heck of alot smarter than he is. Your feelings are not accurate. A,B,C,D and E are real people. At least they are my perceptions of real people.

Re: Is this cool with you?
B is a cool guy. I am glad to know him. He was a great Holdem player. A powerful combination of mind and body he dominated Vegas cardrooms for more than 16 years. He was the finest programmer that ever lived. He was a great bowler, basketball player and a superb mathematician in the truest sense of the word. Charming, handsome, he had it all, a true Renaissance man.
