MATHS CLASSES: WEDNESDAY 26.10

[charlieeppes.livejournal.com]

Charlie is surrounded by a stack of old books, crumpled pieces of paper, and pencils. He's writing eagerly on one of the blackboards. The heading he's written is: Probability Calculation: Migrasjon.

He waits until everybody in a group has arrived. "Joan Girardi and Kimberly Shaw are no longer enrolled in this class and have possibly been eaten. This means that there's an open place in Intermediate, if you know of anyone who might wish to join us.

This is the attendance I have counted thus far, please let me know if I have made any mistakes." He gives them all a copy of their attendance record, as well as todays problems.

Maia comes in and signs the roster. "I've been in the clinic." Maia hands Charlie a note saying that Maia had been under the care of the FH clinic for a catatonic state. "I'm sorry I missed class."

Beginners

[charlieeppes.livejournal.com]

Pick one of these numbers and pronounce them. You cannot choose the same one.

Your number is: 55,555,555
Your number is: 60,400,799
Your number is: 34,600,158,000
Your number is: 664,839
Your number is: 8
Your number is: 7,734,009,223
Your number is: 29

(The extra number is for the shy creature in the back.)

Chloe glances over the list and picks the third one. "Thirty-four billion, six hundred million, one hundred fifty-eight thousand."

Re: Beginners

[maias-notebook.livejournal.com]

Maia, very unsure of herself since she had missed so many classes. Decided on the fifth one.

"Eight" She said

Re: Beginners

[!!!

Seven billion, seven hundred thirty-four million, nine thousand, two hundred twenty-three!

Re: Beginners

[neptune-wallace.livejournal.com]

Slightly upset that eight was already taken, Wallace says, "Twenty-nine."

Intermediate

[charlieeppes.livejournal.com]

Two players bet on the total roll of two standard dice.  Player A bets that a 12 will be rolled first.  Player B bets that two consecutive 7s will be rolled first.  The players keep rolling until one player wins.  What is the probability that A will win?

Re: Intermediate

[sogothcally.livejournal.com]

*scribbles down the long division, and the dice probabilities*

It's almost a 50-50 split for who wins, if I've got my figures right.

Advanced

[charlieeppes.livejournal.com]

Today you will study the fact behind algorithms (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithm) in your textbooks, and at the end of class, please give me a recap of the section of your choice. The sections you can choose between are: Formalized algorithms, Implementation, History, Classes and probabilistic algorithm (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probabilistic_algorithm).

Re: Advanced

[lisacuddy.livejournal.com]

Lisa gives Mr. Eppes a quick rundown on the history section. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithm#History)

After Class

*approaches Charlie's desk, a little sheepish*

Sir, I think... well, I know you didn't make a mistake on attendance, but I think I may have forgotten to sign the roster last friday.

Re: After Class

[charlieeppes.livejournal.com]

Charlie checks the roster for friday 21.10, then shakes his head. "No, you signed (http://www.livejournal.com/community/fandomhigh/251973.html?thread=12239173#t12239173) in there." He tilts his head. "Perhaps there was another day you forgot? Can you think of a day?"

After Class

[maias-notebook.livejournal.com]

"Sir" Looking at her record "I think I have been in two classes. One where I said what my favorite number was and why and the other one where we had to find out what was important about our numbers, My numbers were 3 and 7."

Re: After Class

[charlieeppes.livejournal.com]

Charlie flips through his papers to come up with the right roster (http://www.livejournal.com/community/fandomhigh/219958.html?thread=10258998#t10258998). "No, sorry, can't find you there."
