Episode 858: Never Tell Me the Odds

<<FIRST     <PREVIOUS     NEXT>     LATEST>>

Probability is the well-founded science of calculating how likely an event is to happen. It has a strong theoretical basis grounded in mathematics and can produce results that very accurately reflect the statistical properties and distributions of events in real life.

(Caveat: A roleplaying game is not real life. Toss everything you think you know out the window.)
