Thanks you so much bhagwan for the prompt and unequivical response to what I had thought a fairly complex probem regarding probability that I had put forward for discussion. I've no doubt given your high standing here that you did your DD before answering so as to maintain your hard earned integrity.

I'm humbled to have been given a response even though it totalled only 4 characters. I'll cherish this tenuous link for many years to come.

No need to read any further bhagwan .....

Anyone who has any idea of probability, I would love to hear from regarding the probability of an event happening where there is a single 35% success rate. The event is what are the odds of 3 "WINS" in 5 attempts where each attempt shows 35% success.

You Either ignore help or bag the helper Barny.
