If I can get started, just because I know Robert has a lot of really amazing information. I got a sneak peak at his PowerPoints. Perks of being the coordinator. >> [LAUGH] >> So I just want to make sure he has enough time, he does have a class after this so I don't want him to be too late to this next batch of students.
So for those of you who don't know me, my name is Erin Harwood and I'm a staff coordinator and also the person who is coordinating all these staff seminar series. Before we get to Robert, I just want to give a little plug for our very last pod of the quarter, which will be on Friday December 4th, which is the last Friday of the quarter. And it will be from psychology, and she'll be talking about relationships between children and pets, and then how does that influence their development. And then how does that play into the cycle of abuse that you can see sometimes in some families and in some communities? So I'm excited about, everyone has so far has been so amazing. So I've learned something from every single one, and it's been really great. So I'm excited for this one, and I'm particularly excited too for Robert's. When he first made the proposal to me, I think it was before Fall quarter started, and he and I hadn't even met face to face, I immediately was like, Yes! [LAUGH] Jen, who shares office space with me, she probably even heard me say that. This is such a cool idea. And so I was really excited to have Robert come today, and be able to share some information with us. And a little bit about the math behind all of this as well. For horse racing and betting, and then how exactly does the system for handicapping horse races work as well. I will turn it over to Robert. [INAUDIBLE] [LAUGH]. All right. >> All right. So, before I begin, I have to kind of plug, two of my students got second and third place in [INAUDIBLE]. So I'm pretty bad with [INAUDIBLE]. [LAUGH] Just to be clear about that. [INAUDIBLE]. So I'm just going to save you the trouble. So just a tiny little bit. We'll be talking about [INAUDIBLE] horse raes, with lessons in the stock market, we need a little bit of medicine with our sugar today. Make sure this is not that big for [INAUDIBLE]. That's [INAUDIBLE]. Okay, is that better for [INAUDIBLE]? So horse racing, right? I say the words, and I think we all feel a little skeeved out. We all kind of get a little ew. Why do we talk about this in the first place? And in general gambling as well. So gambling is actually kind of the genesis of almost all of the probability in statistics. It started with the 17th century mathematician Ardano. There's a lot of awesome cool stories Nafta rules or all these other great people. Now later on, I noticed this, Perdonis was the first to actually find what are called theoretical probabilities. Now empirical bonds. And he did it mainly by this annotated. From there, Pascale had some great back and forth, some letters that he sent to one-another to try and solve, basically, roulette, another kind of dice game as well. They really kind of tried to figure out what's the mathematical conflict >> Have here. Or however you want to say that name, also hits more as well. Really talked about the gambling itself, okay. From these period modest beginnings, kind of put that idea some probability from gambling kind of what else can we do with these?
