Presets

Flip a coin a few times and the proportion of heads jumps around wildly; flip it thousands of times and it settles onto the true probability. That is the law of large numbers — averages converge even though individual flips stay random. Crucially, it does not mean a run of tails is "due" to reverse; that belief is the gambler's fallacy.

Governing equation

Reading this result: With a near-fair coin the running proportion wanders wildly at first, but the law pulls it toward 0.50 as flips pile up — and a streak of tails never makes heads “due.”

About this simulation

The full Law of Large Numbers tool models a survey weighting with the same numerics engineers and scientists use — running entirely client-side. Change any parameter and the result updates in real time, so you can build intuition, check a design, or teach the concept without spreadsheets or installs.
