Monte Carlo simulation would support this conclusion. If you were to develop a spreadsheet with a random number generator resulting in 0 for “heads” and 1 for “tails,” then have the spreadsheet recalculate a million times, you would see that very close to 50% of the recalculations resulted in 0 (“heads”) and the other 50% in 1 (“tails”). The basic approach would be to build a spreadsheet with random number generators that replicate the probabilities in the model. This is the essence of simulation:

most widely used management science technique for a imitation of reality. Simulation model : 1. Deterministic model In this model input & output variables are not permitted to be random variables. These models are described by exact functional relationship. 2. Probabilistic model In this model method of random sampling is used. 3. Static model These model do not take variable time in to consideration./ 4. Dynamic model These model deals with time

Forecasting the USD/COP Exchange Rate: A Random Walk with a Variable Drift Peter Rowland Banco de la República* Abstract This study develops three exchange rate models as well as a simple statistical model defined as a random walk with a variable drift. The exchange rate models all use the purchasing power parity hypothesis to account for the long-term relationships between prices and the exchange rate, together with error correction models to represent any shortterm dynamics. The models are

and see what their experiences tell us. To conduct a survey, I would have people answer the questions of: Have you ever had sex with someone random while sober? Have you ever had sex with a random person while intoxicated? Have you ever dated this random person after you had sex? With these questions I hope to find the idea that most people hook up with random people when they are intoxicated, and with this finding it should show a link between the idea of sex and college students. What I also believe

Article Analysis: Talking About Sex The article titled “Talking about Sex” by Mark D. Regneru opens discussing the commonality of the amount of parents who speak to their children about sex. They note that although sex, age, and race are common markers of how parents communicate with their children, religious affiliation might also contribute to the latter. The article continues to explain and note several facts regarding sex and misinformation. Communication on the subject of sex is important

major problem and is becoming more and more of a dilemma everyday. Because of this, school administration are starting to take a stand. They have began giving “random” drug tests. These drug tests affect students who participate in extracurricular activities, plan on attending prom, and have a high school parking pass. By giving these random drug tests, schools are given a chance to track the drug usage throughout their school. Teen drug and narcotic usage has became more of a problem in recent years

Tutorial on Classification Igor Baskin and Alexandre Varnek Introduction The tutorial demonstrates possibilities offered by the Weka software to build classification models for SAR (Structure-Activity Relationships) analysis. Two types of classification tasks will be considered – two-class and multi-class classification. In all cases protein-ligand binding data will analyzed, ligands exhibiting strong binding affinity towards a certain protein being considered as “active” with respect to it
