prior × likelihood → posterior

Presets
Bayesian inference updates a prior belief with data to form a posterior. For a coin, a Beta prior combined with binomial coin flips gives a Beta posterior — the conjugate update is just adding heads to α and tails to β. Watch the posterior sharpen and shift as evidence accumulates.

Governing equation
Reading this result: The posterior mean 0.667 sits between the prior mean 0.500 and the observed rate 0.700; with 20 flips versus 4.0 pseudo-counts, the data dominates and pulls the estimate toward the evidence.
