[quote user="saf"] You are not thick at all, Puncher – and I can confess a sudden need for a couple of cans (“probably” at least two) yesterday in order to refresh what I’d learned at school long time ago… [/quote] ......... that's where I went wrong! I wouldn't care but it's my normal solution to

- seems I am as thick as I feared! I actually dug out my maths books last night to have a bit of a "refresher"............... the sad thing is, I used to know stuff like this. I blame Wednesdays© - I must lose something useful everytime jandyt fills my head with another useless fact - I think the merits of sock weighing may have been

[quote user="saf"] [quote user="Puncher"]If I throw it twice then chance of my number coming up in any of the throws is 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3.[/quote] I found for you (and Soundproof): The probability of an event can be expressed as a binomial probability if its outcomes can be broken down into two probabilities p and q , where p

Is it really this difficult? - If I throw a dice then the chance of my number coming up is 1/6. If I throw it twice then chance of my number coming up in any of the throws is 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/6 = 1/3. If I throw it six times then the theoretical probability of one of the six attempts being my number is 6/6 i.e 1. The probabilities of multiple trials added

Am I being thick here? Yes the chance of winning any prize is 1 in 550 but I have 120 individual discrete chances of winning a prize (at the same odds) over the course of the year. Surely the chance of winning a single prize over the course of the year must be 120/550= Lee's 1 in 4.58! If you did 550 trials you would have a theoretical probability

[quote user="Jandyt"] [quote user="The_Beonic_Man"] Interesting that people's replies include how attractive the 'person' is rather than seem them for their experience and knowledge. Do you look at the male members of staff in dealers in the same light? [/quote] I think that's normal behaviour Simon. I think most

[quote user="dkresz"] [quote user="Stan"] Because he wants to, and this proves nothing other than some people have a lot of money to spend. [/quote] I believe you've inadvertently offended half the B&O community How about: because they aspire to the best quality... [/quote] I don't believe he has - price, quality and

[quote user="moxxey"] [quote user="Puncher"] Can you say you're happy with your BS/BM5 and it is all you'd hoped?? [/quote] It's ok, yeah. The sw can be a tad flaky here and there, but there are now major 'show stoppers' that happened with the BV7-40 MKIII or this MKIV. My guess is that, if it was connected directly
