    So I think my sig is rigged.

    Refresh 4 or 6 times, and tell me which one comes up more.

    It's more balanced now actually. The blue one comes up a few times too.

    Let's use stats to do it!

    I refreshed 50 times. I had 31 yellow, 19 blue.

    Let p be the actual proportion of the time that it lands on yellow. q = proportion of blue.
    Let "p-hat" be the proportion of the time that it landed on yellow in my 50 refresh sample. Q-hat likewise proportion of blue

    H0: P = 0.5
    Ha: P =/= 0.5

    alpha value: 0.10

    p-hat = .62
    q-hat = .38

    Z = (p-hat-p )/ sqrt(pq/n)

    z = (0.12)/sqrt(.25/50)
    z = 0.12/0.071

    =1.7

    normal distribution:

    Feck it, i'm tired, i'll finish tomorrow. If anyone knows stats and sees error in my method (which is more than likely because it's 1:15 and my sleeping pill is trying to knock me out), let me know :)

    *didnt get understand any of that lol*


    But the blue one changed so maybe it will lean towards that one.

    Calls for a recount.
