This is a page to post fun, challenging, or otherwise thought provoking interactive math-related material. Math can be fun, lets prove it!

Found this, file it under fun: [1] Interesting read as several people try to convince someone else that coin flips are independent. tl;dr: Someone accuses someone else of being stupid, using bad probability and the gambler's fallacy to say that the probability of flipping a tails grows with each flip of a heads (he correctly states that p(HHHHH) < p(HHHH) then then says the difference reflects a change in p(T) instead of one less flip. He is then proven wrong with math. Stay in school kids.
