coin tossing

基本解释

I remember some students even decided who to vote for by tossing a coin.
我记得有同学甚至以抛硬币的方式决定选谁。
If a losing male continues to be aggressive, the chances are he will be seriously injured (it is unlikely natural selection could have foreseen competitive coin-tossing).
假使一个失败的男性继续保持进攻性，那么他就会有严重受伤的可能。（自然选择不大可能会料想到竞争性的抛硬币）。
For example, the experiment could be tossing a coin, I will call the outcome heads the number one, and I'll call the outcome tails the number zero, so I've just defined a random variable.
比方说,抛硬币的试验,我将正面向上的结果对应数字1,反面向上的结果对应数字0,这样我就定义了一个随机变量

Let's say the outcome of an experiment, like tossing a coin.
比方说某一试验的结果,比如抛硬币

The view Mandelbrot is arguing against goes like this: Price is determined by binary decisions, like coin tossing.

One solution is to modify the coin-tossing model--to add bells and whistles until the equations match the observations.
