Frequently asked questions
Is a coin flip really 50/50?
In the simulator each flip has an equal chance of heads or tails. Over few flips the tally can look uneven, and it drifts closer to half and half as you flip more.
Does the last result affect the next?
No. Every flip is independent of the ones before it.
