SUO: Re: Logic & Programming Languages
Bill,
I suggest that you flip a coin to predict which way the
coin will fall. That is an adequate random choice generator
for this purpose.

The first coin flip should have just as high a probability
of being right as anything else you use (including predicting
heads every time). If all you expect is a 50% chance of
winning, then you are being logical. If you expect anything
more, then you are being illogical.
