In how many ways can obtain polynomial from
[PLAIN]http://im3.gulfup.com/2011-05-05/1304543619801.gif

notes that c any coffieceints is in{0.1}
also in how many ways can obtain even ploynomials?whats the probability that we can obtain P(1,1,1)=0

there infinitely many polynomials of that form; since there are infinitely many possibilities for choosing a single coefficient between 0 and 1. and you have to choose a bunch of them.
in an even polynomial, the coefficients of odd powers are 0, still you would have bunch of coefficients which don't need to be 0 and can be chosen at random. by the same argument as above, there are infinitely many even polynomials of that form.
if x=y=z=1, then the equation would be just a sum of a number of random numbers, all between 0 and 1. there are infinitely many possible combnations; but the only one which will give 0, is that all of the coeffcients are 0. so, the probability that P(1,1,1)=0 is
1/infinity=0.
after writing the answer I realized that maybe you don't mean the interval between 0 and 1 but only 0 and 1, was that your question?
 
Hi all, I've been a roulette player for more than 10 years (although I took time off here and there) and it's only now that I'm trying to understand the physics of the game. Basically my strategy in roulette is to divide the wheel roughly into two halves (let's call them A and B). My theory is that in roulette there will invariably be variance. In other words, if A comes up 5 times in a row, B will be due to come up soon. However I have been proven wrong many times, and I have seen some...
Thread 'Detail of Diagonalization Lemma'
The following is more or less taken from page 6 of C. Smorynski's "Self-Reference and Modal Logic". (Springer, 1985) (I couldn't get raised brackets to indicate codification (Gödel numbering), so I use a box. The overline is assigning a name. The detail I would like clarification on is in the second step in the last line, where we have an m-overlined, and we substitute the expression for m. Are we saying that the name of a coded term is the same as the coded term? Thanks in advance.
