Goed gedaan. Doordat dit slechts een simulatie is, kan er niks voorspeld worden en indien er een bepaald patroon of trend te zien is, is dit puur toeval.

Ik ben het eens met voorgaande opmerking. De conclusie is juist. In de opgave stond wel om meerdere reproducties uit te voeren. De student had misschien nog iets kunnen zeggen over de grafieken van ‘Proportion of Heads’, daar ziet men dat de proportie telkens convergeert naar 50%.
