(In which I go insane trying to figure out the answer. Don't mind the gaps.) (Previously: One, two, three.) In Max Shinn's post about optimally shuffling cards, he describes looking at the "joint distribution of these frequencies compared to a null distribution." This is
Following on previous posts about shuffling... In Max Shinn's post about optimally shuffling cards, he describes looking at the "joint distribution of these frequencies compared to a null distribution." This is slightly ambiguous, but I'm going to interpret this in a similar way as
In Max Shinn's post about optimally shuffling cards, he describes looking at the "joint distribution of these frequencies compared to a null distribution." What does that mean? Two possible interpretations: 1. We compute a single suit-related number from the hand. We use the "null distribution&
