(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I'll 50k vBux to whoever can make me an odds calculator when the odds are 50/50
What i want it to do: calculate my odds of winning and showing it in % after a series of wins and losses.
The Math (probably explained terribly) :
If the odds are 50/50 the one that gets picked (Win or Loose) gets divided in 2 and Half stays and the other Half goes to the other side. If you don't get it look at the example below


Example:The beginning Odds are 50%Win/50%Loss
1rst Game: If I win the odds will be 25%Win/75%Loss
2nd Game: if I win again the odds will be 12.5%Win/87.5%Loss
3rd Game: If I loose the odds will be 56.25%Win/43.75%Loss

250k vBux and +10 rep to the first person that makes this for me

the math is simple, the one chosen gives half to the other and keeps the other half of the win potential, i have absolutly no computing knowledge

That's tough, because in theory, each round is a completely unrelated event. Let's say you're flipping a coin. The first time you flip it, the odds of you getting heads is 50%, and the odds of getting tails is the same. The second time you flip the coin, the odds have not changed, there is still an equal chance of the coin going either way, because the two flips are individual results.

What you're assuming is that after each event, an object is removed. For example, a bag of 4 marbles, two blue, two red. If you draw a blue marble, the odds of getting a red marble are increased the next event - but only if you don't reinsert the blue marble to the draw.

So, is the removal of an object what you are looking for? Or do you want a program that prints 50% a bunch?
