Assignment:
Re-read example 26 on page 16 in your Ch 9 textbook.
This famous matching birth day of the year paradox is an example of why I think that understanding probability is very counter-intuitive for the human brain.
Your assignment is to try to really really really really understand how & why this computation works.
Then, answer the following questions, assuming there are four people in the room:
(1) What is the probability there is at least one shared birth month of the year among these four people?
(2) What is the probability there is at least one shared birth day of the week among these four people?
