Riemann sums, or simple integrals, or maybe weight an average of the Normal distribution against something else? I dunno.

I'd have to do the math too.<br /><br />One of these days I will write this up with a function to reference values from Pascal's triangle, then things like this will be easier to write down. You are pretty close to doing just that already.<br /><br />Dan<br />Dan Eastwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14105563883467108602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-978535510758037217.post-54107483969139157142012-09-29T22:51:18.410-04:002012-09-29T22:51:18.410-04:00Wednesday's good, I should be free of tests an...Wednesday's good, I should be free of tests and homework by then.SkilTaohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15496366094516039415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-978535510758037217.post-85916144618633821922012-09-29T15:29:18.243-04:002012-09-29T15:29:18.243-04:00I turned this over a bit and made a blog about it....I turned this over a bit and made a blog about it.
