The probability formulas are to be used for wagering on harness racing. There are 6 types of wagerings:

1. Win: You wager on that a certain horse will win the race, and there might be 12 horses in the field.
2. Place. You wager on that a certain horse will end 1st, 2nd or 3rd in the race.
3. Twins: You wager on that two horses in the field will end 1st and 2nd irrespective of the order in the race.
4. Trio: You wager on that three horses will end 1st, 2nd and 3rd in exactly that order in the race.
5, Top 7 Pro: You wager on that 7 horses end 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th in exactly that order in the race.
6. DD: You wager on that a certain horse will win race 1 and a certain horse will win race 2.

So type 1-5 are for only one race, whereas type 6 is for 2 races.

Type 1 is not difficult: If there are 12 horses in the race, then each horse has a 1/12th chance to win (8.3 %) if they would have exactly the same capability.

What would the function be for the other five types, assuming there are always 12 horses in the field?

Logically the order of most easy to most difficult would be this:

2. Place
1. Win (difficulty/probability 8.3 %)
3. Twins
6. DD
4. Trio
5. Top 7 Pro

Which formulas could I enter in this online probability calculator for example?:

Hi
I have set up a project with a freelancer, and he needs access to my wp-admin - as it is my blog.

Do I give him my Godaddy password, or is there a system for giving external people access to parts of my account?

I gave him my Google password for Adsense. Was that a mistake?

Should I be worried. He is in India. I doubt he is in the Indian Freelancer Mafia. He looked like a decent guy in his pic.

Thanks

I am working with my son learning javascript by following a book called '3D Game Programming for Kids'. It is an awesome book, explains thing nicely and we were doing great until we got to the following bit of code that we absolutely need to continue the book. It is supposed to add four trees to the screen but when I place this bit of code in the main code our original avatar does not even show up anymore so i know that the only problem was with this section of code with the tree not with the rest of it. I will show you this section of code (that I copied exactly from the book) and then then entire avatar code so far. Any help is very much appreciated as we are completely stuck and cannot move forward and I really need your help to help my son learn but I'm learning at the same time. Thanks! :)

This is the Tree code:

***********

makeTreeAt(500, 0);
makeTreeAt(-500, 0);
makeTreeAt(750, 0);
makeTreeAt(-750, 0);

function makeTreeAt(x, z) {
  var trunk = new THREE.Mesh(
    new THREE.Cylinder.Geometry(50, 50, 200),
    new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({color: 0xA0522D})
    );
 
  var top = new THREE.Mesh(
    new THREE.SphereGeometry(150),
    new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({color: 0x228B22})
    );
    top.position.y = 175;
    trunk.add(top);
   
    trunk.position.set(x, -75, z);
    scene.add(trunk);
}

Here is the entire code for the avatar with the tree code added:

Hello,

I need a collision function for a random number of 3D objects (TCube) in a Viewport.

Only one of TCube object is moving at a time (by mouse move) and i need to collide (and stop) when another 3D object standing in his way.

I try a lot of ideeas but with small result.

Would for example Java or GWbasic be a good choice? (If possible to achieve without Excel's VBA.) Or could I benefit from using an online tool such as Unity or Game Maker Studio 2? What about Smalltalk or Ruby? And should I avoid PHP, JavaScript and C++ according to this website?:

I already have a lot of VBA in this Excel, and now want to add a simulator for simulation of each harness race I have handicapped. It would consist of an oval shaped circuit and objects (maximum 15), that represent the horses, running around this circuit, and which I can control by entering values in a table below the circuit. Something like this:

(But my simulation would be an oval shaped circuit, otherwise the same principle with a table below where I can enter values that affect how the race is run/simulated.)

A layout something like this is what I have in mind:

https://sites.google.com/site/e90e50fx/home/racetrack-chart-with-excel
(The first option would be perfect, if possible in Excel and in Windows 10.)

Of course these kind of layouts would be very good also, but probably not possible in Excel:

So no high requirements on graphics (is not possible anyway in Excel), but on being able …

Hi

I have done Adsense before on a blog, and broke the payment threshold just? once.

I think I once saw on their TOS that Adsense is only allowed through regular browsing.
This is a reasonable requirement, and my first blog was a discussion.

If on my new discussion, I want to do a serious prize contest, like $50 K, for a submitted audio track, am I allowed to say that only serious, well respected, active members on the site can submit tracks for peer-review via my permission? What might be the surrounding issues?
Thanks

Hi
I'm doing a new website.

The last time I did a blog, I think some people found out my real name, and I was ticked off. Did they do a whois on my domain?
How do you do that? I have Godaddy.
How can I, in-fact, be completely anonymous? (totally, so the Kremlin can't even track me down) CIA, FBI, Vlad the impailer, or Garry Kasparov

Thanks

Hi

In Starcraft 2, the better players can build a base at their natural expansion immediately, but when it's me, it expects Vespene gas.

How do I expand instantly without gas?

Thanks
