... (3) If (2.1) is not true for a then stop the test and declare (correctly) “n is composite.” (4) If (2.1) is true for a then go to step 2 and pick another random a from 1 to n − 1. (5) If the test runs for t trials without terminating then say “n is prime with probability at least 1 − 1/2t .” The val ...

... The theorem follows rather simply from some of our following work: (p – 1)! ≡ -1 (mod p) for all primes p. This result can be verified for p = 2. Now, let’s consider all odd p. Since each value 1, 2, …, p – 1 is relatively prime to p, each has an inverse mod p. We know that the inverse of 1 is 1 and ...

Law of large numbers
In probability theory, the law of large numbers (LLN) is a theorem that describes the result of performing the same experiment a large number of times. According to the law, the average of the results obtained from a large number of trials should be close to the expected value, and will tend to become closer as more trials are performed.The LLN is important because it ""guarantees"" stable long-term results for the averages of some random events. For example, while a casino may lose money in a single spin of the roulette wheel, its earnings will tend towards a predictable percentage over a large number of spins. Any winning streak by a player will eventually be overcome by the parameters of the game. It is important to remember that the LLN only applies (as the name indicates) when a large number of observations are considered. There is no principle that a small number of observations will coincide with the expected value or that a streak of one value will immediately be ""balanced"" by the others (see the gambler's fallacy)
