Watch (and listen to) this practical illustration of a binomial distribution.

In a Galton board, small balls, on their way from the top to the bottom, repeatedly encounter obstacles that deflect them to the left or right with a 50% probability. 

Even though the path of a single ball cannot be predicted, the outcome can be precisely described when many balls are involved.

Let’s celebrate science!
