【Haichuan Teahouse】What if, when flipping a coin, it lands on heads 100 million times in a row? So what is the probability that it will land on the reverse side next time?

There is a very interesting question in statistics: what if, when flipping a coin, it lands on heads 100 million times in a row? So what is the probability that it will land on the reverse side next time?
It can be 1/3, or it can be close to 1, depending on the perspective from which you view it.
Haha, I guess no one can do it. It takes 1 second to throw once; let’s calculate how long it would take to do it 100 million times.
If it lands on heads 100 million times in a row, it indicates that there is something wrong with the coin, or with the machine used to flip the coin. So I’ll still choose with the front facing up!
Multiple people can participate over an extended period of time; the asphalt drip test can be used as a reference
Statistics have told you that this is a 100% certainty
It’s already reached 100 million times – is there still a need to throw it again? Upward! :hug:
That is, don’t be misled by probabilities
