Questions We Asked • How many draws does it typically take for all the cards of one suit to be drawn? • What is the shortest interval within which 90% of the time one of the suits will be exhausted? • How would this work with a non- standard deck? • A variation on that deck? • Why does this matter? http://blogs.onlineeducation.touro.edu/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/question-mark-with-laptop.jpg Computer ? https://images.techhive.com/images/article/2014/05/red-question-mark-165419798-100265543-primary.idge.jpg Lots of ? http://www.renegadetribune.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/19130-Question-Man-Lightbulb-1.jpg Lightbulb ?
Making and Using the Program • Language: r • Parameters: # of suits, # of cards per suit, # of redundant cards, # of simulations • The simulation measures the number of draws/turns • The simulation’s process
Our “Standard” Deck • Porta’s Game: 4 suits, 5 cards per suit, 12 redundant cards • Constant 1 Million Simulations Related Non-Standard Decks • 4 suits, 5 cards per suit, 20 redundant cards • 4 suits, 5 cards per suit, 5 redundant cards • 4 suits, 10 cards per suit, 12 redundant cards • 4 suits, 2 cards per suit, 12 redundant cards • 6 suits, 5 cards per suit, 12 redundant cards • 2 suits, 5 cards per suit, 12 redundant cards
Interpreting the Data: The Histograms Porta’s Games Average Median Mode Turns Taken
Histograms Cont. Increasing Number of Suits Increasing Cards Per Suit Increasing Redundant Cards Turns Taken Turns Taken Turns Taken Decreased Number of Suits Decreasing Redundant Cards Decreasing Cards Per Suit Turns Taken Turns Taken Turns Taken
