... The game of blackjack begins by dealing 2 cards to a player, the first face-down and the second face-up on top of the first. The player has a “Blackjack” if he has a black jack and an ace as his two cards. The player has “twenty-on” if he has an ace and a 10, Jack, Queen, or King. (We are playing a ...

If we choose a permutation at random, the probability that it will produce the same minhash values for two sets is the same as the Jaccard similarity of those sets. • Thus, if we have the signatures of two sets S and T, we can estimate the Jaccard similarity of S and T by the fraction of correspondi ...

Ars Conjectandi
Ars Conjectandi (Latin for The Art of Conjecturing) is a book on combinatorics and mathematical probability written by Jakob Bernoulli and published in 1713, eight years after his death, by his nephew, Niklaus Bernoulli. The seminal work consolidated, apart from many combinatorial topics, many central ideas in probability theory, such as the very first version of the law of large numbers: indeed, it is widely regarded as the founding work of that subject. It also addressed problems that today are classified in the twelvefold way, and added to the subjects; consequently, it has been dubbed an important historical landmark in not only probability but all combinatorics by a plethora of mathematical historians. The importance of this early work had a large impact on both contemporary and later mathematicians; for example, Abraham de Moivre.Bernoulli wrote the text between 1684 and 1689, including the work of mathematicians such as Christiaan Huygens, Gerolamo Cardano, Pierre de Fermat, and Blaise Pascal. He incorporated fundamental combinatorial topics such as his theory of permutations and combinations—the aforementioned problems from the twelvefold way—as well as those more distantly connected to the burgeoning subject: the derivation and properties of the eponymous Bernoulli numbers, for instance. Core topics from probability, such as expected value, were also a significant portion of this important work.
