APPLET | SOURCE | DESCRIPTION |
|
Frequency Distribution | Collection of Applets, Math Forum at Drexel (Palu) | Lists all possible experimental outcomes and graphs probabilities of for tossing 1-4 dice or 1-10 coins. more |
Dice Probabilities | Wolfram Demonstrations Project | Users can view probability distributions, in both tabular and graphical format, of random variables arising from rolling a specified number of dice (1-10) with a given number of sides (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 20). Requires download of Mathematica player and demo itself, good for classroom demonstration. more |
Probability | Interactive Business Stats (Lind, Marchal, Wathen) | Simulates tossing of a die a specified number of times, recording outcomes (graphically and in table format) and frequencies for the event that the value is greater than 4, and comparing to theoretical. more |
Box Models | CUWU Statistics Program (Marden) | For dice, coins or user-defined population (box), takes samples, compares empirical distribution to theoretical, shows sample statistics and distribution of the mean and sums, shows long run probabilities. more |
Spinner Experiement | Siegrist and Duehring, accessed through SOCR (Statistics Online Computational Resource) | Can select the number of sectors on a spinner (up to 200), adjust area of each if desired, output results of individual spins as well as the distribution, both observed and theoretical. Use for classroom simulations. more |
The Ball and Urn Experiment | Siegrist and Duehring, Virtual Laboratories in Probability and Statistics | Users can simulate choosing a specified number of balls (with or without replacement) from urns containing a specified number of balls total and red balls, counting the number of red balls in each sample, and comparing observed to theoretical frequencies. more |
Coin Sample Experiment | Virtual Laboratories in Probability and Statistics (Siegrist, Duehring) | Users can generate multiple samples of tossing a coin (either fair or unfair) a specified number of times and record outcomes. NOTE: xhtml files may not run in all browsers. more |
Binomial Coin Experiment | Virtual Laboratories in Probability and Statistics (Siegrist, Duehring) | Users can generate multiple samples of tossing a coin a specified number of times with a specified probability of heads, and can view the distribution of the number of heads and compare to theoretical.
