Brainteasers & Puzzles. Maths Online. The following Flash movies simulate typical probability experiments. Carry out the experiments in the usual way with the whole class and then run the simulations to generate a large number of trials. The simulations couild be left running to produce thousands of trials. How long would the computer have to be left on to toss ten coins each ten million times?
