This is my question:

E1 = there is no rain
E2 = concrete material production is feasible
E3 = premix concrete is available

On a day given, casting concrete depend on the availability of material. The required material may be produced and send to the site from premix concrete supplier. However, it is not certain the premix concrete will always be available. Furthermore, whenever when its raining, casting cannot be perform.
The following events were defined: P(E1) = 0.8, P(E2)=0.7, P(E3|E2')=0.6

Identify the following events in terms of E1, E2, E3.
A = Casting concrete elements can be performed on a day
B = Casting concrete elements cannot be performed on a day

E2 and E3 are statistically independent of E1

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.
