HI community.
In Atkins Diet Deconstruction info Expected Returns table 'atkins' symbol 5 in row has expected return of 0.000149 my questions is why not 0.00015 expected return.
Is trick here or it just simply approximation of computer software in float point math?

It is actually 5,000/33,554,432 which is about 0.00014901.
I heart Crystal Math.

in description says "is the product of the probability, from the table above (Atkins Line Pay Probabilities), and the pay table.
but in you request CrystalMath is different calculation:
5000 / 32 ** 5 (pay of 5 Atkins in row) / total number of combinations
what is the reason of this calculation?
thx for request!

On
in table: Atkins Diet Scatter Pay Probabilities and Returns: probably mistake on 'COMBINATION' column in 'total' inserted possible outcome but probably must be total number of scatter win combinations.
