Even a truly random die is not guaranteed to ever roll a 6.



Though it does eventually roll a 6 almost always.

Which is math speak for 100% of the time.


“ever” implies the limit of time. Since lim_{t->Inf} p(at least one 6 is rolled) = 1, I think you could say it’s guaranteed.


Yet, it probably will.
