Comparing p(n) = probability of a birthday match with q(n) = probability of matching your birthday. In the birthday problem, neither of the two people is chosen in advance. By contrast, the probability q(n) that at least one other person in a room of n other people has the same birthday as a particular person (for example, you) is given by
Example 8 or August: String: suggested: Day: 4: Day of publication of reference. Example 21: Number: suggested: Hide age: noage: Set to a value of 'yes' to display year of birth without the age. Default no (i.e., the default is to show the age) Example 1: Boolean: optional: Slash separator: slash: Set to 'yes' to separate years with a '/' for ...
Note: The template may not calculate the age correctly if a full date (month, day, year) is not provided. For example, a person who was born in 1941 could be either 83 or 84, depending on whether they have reached their birthday in the current year: {{Birth-date and age|1941}} → 1941 () (age 84)
The Rademacher distribution, which takes value 1 with probability 1/2 and value −1 with probability 1/2. The binomial distribution, which describes the number of successes in a series of independent Yes/No experiments all with the same probability of success.
Probability of a random day of the year being your birthday (for all birthdays besides Feb. 29) 4×10 −3: Probability of being dealt a straight in poker 10 −2: Centi-(c) 1.8×10 −2: Probability of winning any prize in the UK National Lottery with one ticket in 2003 2.1×10 −2: Probability of being dealt a three of a kind in poker 2.3× ...
The correct answer, of course, is "infinite", as there is nothing preventing, for example, everyone from being born on the same day. But given the number of people, what is the probability of every day in the year being someone's birthday? For 1 to 364 people, it is 0, i.e. such a thing is impossible.
Example 1993: Number: required: Month of birth: 2 month: The month (number) in which the person was born. Example 2: Number: required: Day of birth: 3 day: The day (number) in which the person was born. Example 24: Number: required: Day first: df: When set to 'y' or 'yes', the date of birth is output in a DMY format. Example y: String: optional ...
The first column sum is the probability that x =0 and y equals any of the values it can have – that is, the column sum 6/9 is the marginal probability that x=0. If we want to find the probability that y=0 given that x=0, we compute the fraction of the probabilities in the x=0 column that have the value y=0, which is 4/9 ÷
