Aanvulling: er is een duidelijk, trendmatig verloop terug te vinden. Dit komt doordat de grafiek “proportion of heads” steeds terug naar het midden (0.5) toekomt. Na enkele opwerpingen zal het aantal kop en munt normaal niet gelijk zijn, echter na 500 keer wel (dit is de wet van de grote getallen). Dit terugkerend verloop naar het midden is de lange termijn trend.

Er is ook geen seizoenaliteit terug te vinden. Dit komt doordat je elke keer andere resultaten bekomt en er als dusdanig geen sprake kan zijn van een terugkerend patroon.
