| Division: | Physical & Mathematical Sciences | | Category: | Junior | | Region: | Calgary Youth | | City: | Calgary, AB | | School: | Calgary Science School | | Abstract: | The recently reported Parrondo's Paradox states that two guaranteed losing games can be combined to make a winning game. This project demonstrates the effect of choice on the game patterns and other variables on the outcome of a combination game (i.e., limitations of the applicability of the paradox). |
