Topics

    • Probability
    • Statistics
    • Histograms

Learning Goals

    • Predict the bin where a single ball might fall
    • Repeat trials of 100 balls and compare the outcomes
    • Count the number of balls in a bin and relate that to the probability of falling in that bin
    • Compare and interpret empirical and theoretical statistics
    • Apply the plinko simulation as a model to other scenarios where there are weighted statistics
