This problem aims to familiarize us with random events and their predictable outcomes. The concepts required to solve this problem are mostly related to probability, and probability distribution. So probability is a method to predict the occurrence of a random event, and its value can be between zero and one. It measures the likelihood of […]

This problem aims to familiarize us with permutations and decision trees. The concepts required to solve this problem are related to algorithms and data structures which include computation, permutation, combination, and decision trees. In data structures, permutation correlates to the action of organizing all the components of a set into an arrangement or order. We can […]

This article aims to determine the probability of holding $3$ aces in a poker hand of $5$. The article uses the background concept of probability and combination. To solve problems like this, the idea of combinations should be clear. A combination combines $n$ things $k$ at once without repetition. The formula to find the combination is: [binom […]
