Given a set of urns, each filled with a mix of black chips and white chips, what is the probability of drawing a black chip from the last urn after some sequential random shifts of chips among the urns? The Total Probability Formula (TPF) is the comm

The year 2000 US presidential election between Al Gore and George Bush has been the most intriguing and controversial one in American history. The state of Florida was the trigger for the controversy, mainly, due to the use of the misleading ‘butte

In the literature there have been reported a number of studies of probabilities involved in Monopoly, the worldwide popular game designed by Charles B. Darrow in the 1930s. Simple assumptions often lead to inaccurate results. In this paper, having di

There have been many studies of Bernoulli numbers since Jakob Bernoulli first used the numbers to compute sums of powers, 1 p + 2 p + 3 p + ··· + np , where n is any natural number and p is any non-negative integer. By examining patterns of these

Since the game SET® was first introduced to the public in 1993, it has stimulated some interesting studies. While the game itself is rather straightforward, a plethora of decent mathematical questions lies beneath the surface. It is perhaps because

A multiscale wavelet density estimator (MWDE) was recently introduced and was shown to have nice convergence properties as well as good simulation results (Wu, 1995). This paper studies the asymptotic normality of the MWDE. It is proved that, under m

In this note the author suggests a heuristic formula for the derivative of functions of the form f(x)g(x). This formula provides an alternative way to find derivatives of functions of such a form. It has been successfully taught to a number of first
