Using Python :

consider the following experiment:

You roll a pair of fair dice and calculate the sum of the faces.

You are interested in the number of rolls it takes until you get a sum of "7". The first time you get a "7" the experiment is considered a "success". You record the number of rolls and you stop the experiment. You repeat the experiment N=100,000 times. Each time you keep track of the number of rolls it takes to have "success".

After the N experiments are completed you should generate a probability mass function for the number of rolls it takes for "success".

Consider an experiment where we roll 7 fair 6-sided dice simultaneously (the results of the dice are independent from each other). (a) What is the probability that exactly 3 of the dice are greater than or equal to 5? (b) Suppose now that each of the 7 6-sided dice are weighted the same such that the probability of rolling a 6 is 0.5, and every other side that is not a 6 has equal probability of being rolled. If we...

Consider the experiment of rolling two standard (six-sided) dice and taking their sum. Assume that each die lands on each of its faces equally often. We consider the outcomes of this experiment to be the ordered pairs of numbers on the dice, and the events of interest to be the different sums. Write out the generating function F(x) for the sums of the dice, and show how it factors into the generating functions for the individual die rolls. Use F(x)...
