random stuff

its a pity nobody likes baseball. sigh~ oh well, guess the majority, if not all except genius junjie, is studying. i've finally gotten down to hitting the books, like sayuki reloaded and some "spastic child writing a dog murder mystery" book. quite cool lah, my hats off to the author! =) alright, i'll be serious and say that i have almost completed fmaths and am now left with chem, after 3 days of practise. yea, go figure, doing chem for 2-3 weeks but not covering much, and is now left with bio-chem. well, 25% prepared if ya do the calculations, because never and not intending to do ANYTHING for c maths, c maths 's', fmaths pure maths and gp. i'm like so dead, gg!

well, i guess nobody frequents my blog because there are no taggers, i am boring, and things which i pen down with effort are of no interest to anyone. this is good because nobody will then catch me if i happened to say anything wrong, and i like privacy, so quad erat demonstrandum, people don't like me because i am not stressed and not slogging my guts out, instead am here blogging. this is alright because strangers are weird, but it doesn't matter if i pass by alot of grey cars in a day because that'll make it a super good day. btw, thanks marcus, you rock! =)

monty hall problem: (if you like logic and feel intellectually challenged, go figure)
in a game show, there are 3 doors, in which behind 1 door is the prize of a car. you are asked to select 1 door, then the gameshow host will open one of the remaining 2 doors which you did not choose and does not show the car. then you will have an option to switch your choice, you either stick with the door you originally chose or change to the remaining door which is still closed. so what is the probability of choosing the correct door with the car behind it if you had chosen to switch doors?
intuition might lead one to think its half, but the answer is two-thirds. enjoy! =)
