Flip a coin a million times!
Description
Book Introduction
Probability is not a law?
What does it mean to say that probability is not a law? It means that probability is not an absolute rule that accurately predicts natural phenomena, but rather a mathematical concept that expresses the degree of uncertainty and predictability.
In "Flipping a Coin a Million Times," probability is explained as a numerical representation of the likelihood of a future event occurring, but it does not guarantee that the event will occur.
For example, even if the probability of getting heads when flipping a coin is 50%, when you actually flip a coin, you don't get exactly half heads and half tails every time.
The fact that while probabilities represent long-term trends, the outcomes of individual events can vary due to chance.
So we can see that probability should be understood not simply as a law, but as a tool for distributing possible outcomes in uncertain situations.

Publisher's Review
The Pitfalls of Statistics and Tools for Predicting the Future
In "Flipping a Coin a Million Times!", the two faces of statistics are discussed.
Statistics are useful concepts for understanding and analyzing data, but they can easily lead to pitfalls if misinterpreted.
This could have implications such as sampling bias, distorted data analysis, or oversimplification.
Nevertheless, statistics is a useful concept for predicting the future based on past data.
It helps us predict the future more reliably through trend analysis, forecasting, and modeling.
This book uses various examples to illustrate the inherent uncertainty and limitations of statistics and the various pitfalls that arise when interpreting statistics.
Statistics is a special kind of mathematics.
We can predict and imagine the future thanks to probability and statistics.
A Guide to the Strange and Exciting World of Mathematics
The "Future is Coming_Mathematics" series is a children's liberal arts mathematics book that teaches children how to look at things like a mathematician and provides a glimpse into the mathematics hidden behind cutting-edge scientific civilization that will change the future, from classical mathematics to modern mathematics.
Children are already prepared to do well in math.
If I could show you how to get started! Let's forget everything we've thought about math so far, open our hearts, and start learning math from scratch.
What exactly is mathematics? Numbers and operations, prime numbers, symbols and formulas, functions and graphs, probability, geometry and topology, patterns, symmetry, data, probability and statistics, and even infinity… Mathematics began with simple, yet profound ideas.
And the math is still a long way off.
In the world of mathematics, there are countless answers yet to be found, and there are many concepts that even the most renowned mathematicians have not been able to uncover.
This book will serve as an excellent guide on your journey into the world of mathematics, helping our children shed light on the unknown world of mathematics.
Cutting-edge science driven by mathematics: A future transformed by mathematics.
Smartphones, Netflix, science fiction movies, and even games—there's math in them all.
The future, or rather the era we live in now, is the 'era of mathematics.'
Mathematics has limitless potential to change the future, and mathematics has been at the root of every advanced scientific world that humanity has dreamed of.
Functions are the foundation of artificial intelligence, and understanding mathematical language is essential to analyzing big data and communicating with artificial intelligence.
Without mathematics, there is no advanced science.
Mathematics is the language of science and is useful in all areas of understanding nature and seeking truth.
Mathematics is a powerful tool that can lead humanity into a world of infinite imagination, provided it follows the laws of logic.
In fact, the more you know about mathematics, the more enjoyable it becomes.
Math is easy, fun, and everywhere in the world.
Furthermore, mathematics is one of the most bizarre 'discoveries' and amazing 'inventions' that have ever emerged from the human mind.
Now, let's take a closer look at the true nature of mathematics.
Mathematics is a game of thought that even children can understand, and anyone can experience new joy through mathematics.
I hope there will be no more 'math dropouts' who give up on math because they misunderstand it as boring calculations.
The "Future is Coming_Mathematics" series is a children's mathematics information book that teaches children the mathematical principles hidden in cutting-edge science that will change the future and how to think like a mathematician.
