Language: Python Write a program to simulate an experiment of tossing a fair coin 16 times and counting the number of heads. Repeat this experiment 10**5 times to obtain the number of heads for every 16 tosses; save the number of heads in a vector of size 10**5 (call it headCounts). You should be able to do this in 1-3 lines of numpy code. (Use np.random.uniform1 to generate a 2d array of 10**5 x 16 random numbers between 0 and...
