I think I don't get it... since it's binary, it can always be guessed in two att...

gamerDude · 2025-06-04T12:43:50 1749041030

It took me 10 tries...

The classics are classics for a reason

financypants · 2025-06-04T15:29:44 1749050984

That's pretty good, considering they give you 110 tries

I _think_ it's humorous!

Yes. You can still try to get it in one attempt.

brookst · 2025-06-04T11:50:30 1749037830

Odds in one attempt: 1 in 32

Odds in two attempts: 1 in 1

dskloet · 2025-06-04T17:44:40 1749059080

Your odds add up to more than 1.

pteetor · 2025-06-04T19:10:56 1749064256

Probabilities sum to 1.0. Odds don't sum.

tonmoy · 2025-06-04T18:16:32 1749060992

Odds of getting it within 2 attempts is 1. Odds of getting it on exactly the second attempt is 31/32

xandrius · 2025-06-04T16:28:46 1749054526

Ooops:

You won!

You guessed 01111 in 4 attempts!

Well yeah and a fair coin has P(heads) == P(tails) == 0 for someone who eats it.

I’m glad I figured that out after my first attempt. I feel smart lol.
