Random Number Catch-up #31

Closed ghost closed 3 years ago

I enjoy your project after seeing it get announced on Game Theory, and I wanted to look at it myself! I made a little function and every time, as we know, it comes out perfectly 50%/50%. But wouldn’t that be problematic in one way: if you’re counting the numbers as their being generated and there is a short deficit of one binary digit in ratio, you would naturally assume that it will catch up. Maybe this is impractical because developers worry about the data after it's generated. I was just curious to hear your thoughts about it.

As for this issue itself, I request that I could apply some JS to the website that (asynchronously) counts the zeroes and ones at least in the binary live stream. However, I see that there is not a gh-pages branch in this repository.
