SUMMARY:GEMS October 5th Session
DESCRIPTION:Title:  How to use coins to make a 7-sided die\n\nAbstract:  Certain dice are easier to make than others.  There is the standard 6-sided die\, but 4-sided\, 8-sided\, 10-sided\, 12-sided\, and 20-sided are also very common.  What isn’t so common is a 7-sided die.  Here Dr. Mark Huber from Claremont McKenna College will talk about how you can simulate a roll of a 7-sided die using only flips of a fair coin.  This works because of something called the Fundamental Theorem of Perfect Simulation\, which allows us to break down simulation problems into smaller problems.
