Long Description:
Float tests are the wrong way to test dice fairness because a die rotating in a liquid is dynamically different than a rolled die. The side that comes up in a float test is not the side that comes up most often when rolled. There are many Youtube entries using the chi-square test to test dice fairness. Many of these apply the test incorrectly. The actual distribution of dice rolls is the multinomial distribution which is only asymptotically chi-square distributed. There are instances when actual 95% value differs significantly from the chi-square 95% value. This seminar will show you the correct way to test dice.
