Not sure what you mean by what kind of distribution? Basically, each toss is independent and each toss you have 1/3 of a chance of flipping tails and 2/3 a chance flipping heads. If you make k flips, what's the probability tails was flipped more times then heads. For k = 3 , well you have to...- mcnkevin

Undergrad Scaling node coordinates to a fixed graph size
Hi, suppose i have various graphs which each have many nodes. In one graph the nodes x and y values may be within the range 0-1000, in another the x values may range from 100-500 and the y values from 300-800. Basically, the ranges always vary and there is no consistency. I need a way to...- mcnkevin
