The Easy Vegas thread

Quote: DRich

In Las Vegas high income tip earning jobs are one of the reasons the education system here is rated so low. So many kids are dropping out of high school because the tip earning jobs pay so much and don't require a HS diploma.

A 17 year old kid can easily get a job earning $40k-$50k valet parking cars in Las Vegas. If he stays in the business he will be making $60k-$70k in 10 years. I know, I have a step son in that position.

I also think there are many other reasons the education system there is rated so low, but under the new rules, I'll pretty much stop at this point.

One of my neighbors does something for the Clark County school system. We were talking one day and he told me about the drop out problem in Henderson. Between the boys leaving for casinos and girls leaving to dance.....
Contrast that with Bisbee where I have sixty plus applications for four part time jobs.

Ughhhhh...I apologize. I had a major reading comprehension fail. I read it as you suggested you should tip them based on what they actually make, not what you THINK they should make. So ignore the rest of my post other than the Linq, Harrah's, Casino Royale thing, which you already fixed.

Quote: MaxPen

What do make HS dropouts do for casinos? Leaving for casinos? Am I missing something? What are they doing? I'm confused.

I just added a Roulette Calculator to Easy Vegas. It's in beta, so there's a good chance something doesn't work right, if not the math then the interface. Feel free to bang on it and see if you can get it to break.

ultimate roulette calculator

probability of hitting a specific number [x] times in a row.

That 'x' box should open up as a tall narrow box with 1,2,3,4, etc. in it, but instead is totally blank.

Quote: MichaelBluejay

And good catch on "at least 1 unique" needing to show 100%.

Wow, I'm very sorry to hear about your troubles. I can't imagine how difficult that must be.

To be clear, all web browsers are free, and always have been. So it wouldn't cost you anything to download and install a better browser, but given your recent challenges, I'll understand if it's something you'd rather not bother with right now.

at least
9 unique numbers over 10 spins (38 slots) should be about 0.6972321476726648, The calc still shows 100%.
I have not looked at your code.

'at least' would be the sum of exactly X or more
I do not know of a simple formula for that.

s=10;\\spins
u=9;\\uniques
n=38;\\number of numbers
a=sum(k=0,n,((-1)^(k+u-n)*\
binomial(k-1,n-u)*binomial(n,k)*(n-k)^s)/n^s);
aDec=1.*a;
a
aDec

s=20;\\spins
u=15;\\uniques
n=37;\\number of numbers
a=sum(k=0,n,((-1)^(k+u-n)*\
binomial(k,n-u)*binomial(n,k)*(n-k)^s)/n^s);
aDec=1.*a;
a1chanceIn=1/aDec;
a
aDec
a1chanceIn

With any luck, that's the last bug, but I won't be surprised if there are more.

I repeat my invitation for anyone reading this to bang on the calculator and see if you can get it to break (either a wrong answer, or an interface problem).

"It doesn't calculate every possible idea you might have,... "

and this could be added
below the calculator
as the numbers can get large quickly.

For the 'average number of spins' for a streak
to see 'any' or a 'specific' number hit in a row (streak)

average does not mean it is certain as many think it does (about a 63.5% chance of success, give or take)

↓run / wheel→	38 any #	38 specific #	37 any #	37 specific #

Is imitation the sincerest form of flattery? I don't know, but I didn't feel especially flattered when I ran across this eBook being sold on Amazon which is comprised almost entirely of articles lifted word-for-word from Easy Vegas.

BTW, Easy Vegas still has a theme song.

Quote: MichaelBluejay

I pushed the song because I was hoping to hear someone comment on it. I'm sorry you don't like it, I guess we just have a different sense of humor.

Not sure why you keep pushing the theme song. No one cares about a song
