Probability Analysis A few questions I had to consider for my probability analysis were: Is this game a concept of probability? How can I include probability to this? And what question will I have based on probability? I also had to solve this problem and show how it works. This is a habit of a mathematician, simply problem solving. Fox and Geese is a game is inequality and strategy. I included probability to this game by having a coin toss to determine which player out of the two takes the first turn. The question is, what is the probability of one player out of two going first on at least one game? Pr [Go 1st on 1 game] = 1/2 (One out of 2 chances)
Reflection For this project, I succeeded in finding a fun game from the Renaissance time called Fox and Geese. Luckily the game was a game of chance since there was a little unfairness in the game. I also felt that I did well with the research of the game. Unfortunately though, I didn't get to create the full game because I was out sick for the building days, but I know the game, how it works, and the time it was originally created. For probability, we did a lot of assignments showing us to use the proper equation to figure out the probability of real-world problems and learned to really focus on the question and what it's asking because if the words are switched around even just a little bit, it could have a whole new meaning. We learned and created Tree Diagrams to make it simpler to find out the probability. One assignment in which we used these was the marble problem. I feel that I should've asked questions more for this project because at some points I got confused.
