Today Nate came home from school and told me that the statistics students each set up a bracket for March Madness. Nate isn't terribly interested in basketball so he's not too familiar with the teams.
His plan to fill out a bracket:
1. Ask a friend questions about the likelihood certain teams would win.
2. Write a program on the computer that simulates flipping a coin.
3. Weight the coin based on the information he received from his friend.
4. Use the results from his program to fill out his bracket.
That's so much more scientific than picking the cities you like better with a little weight from the rankings:) We'll see who does better. . .
ReplyDeleteJeff and I just choose the teams with good colors.
ReplyDeletePapa said he just chose the ones that President O'Bama did not pick! I think Nate's way is probably just as valid as any other. Maybe more so. Let us know how his picks turn out.
