Unrelated to LEGO perhaps, but not to our area: Sunday I went to the open house for the New Terminal 1 at Pearson/YYZ. (URL) short of breathtaking.

(...) Yes, Chris, you need to read that again. There's a 76% chance you robot won't even make four moves! In fact, 10% of the time, your third move won't even matter. Your robot has already lost. And, I haven't done all the math, but I'm pretty sure (...) (21 years ago, 6-Dec-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) hummmm lets see, 76% - 100% equals, umm, sec..... carry the 3...... ummmm OK my RND(7) robot would have a 24% chance of beating your robot. WOW. steve if your robot would lose to me 1 in 4 times, then i gotta say that your robot sucks. Chris (21 years ago, 5-Dec-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

It seems if you use the rnd(7) approach to programming, and a robot with just a little brain plays red, the rnd(7) robot will LOSE on (...) (21 years ago, 5-Dec-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
