Project 53NFL  Regular Season

The Green Bay Packers and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were tied for the best record in 2021, with a record of 13-4. Since the NFL has a hard salary cap, the talent level on NFL teams is fairly evenly distributed.

Project 53: Assume a certain NFL team has a 50% chance of winning every game.  We want to estimate the probability the team would win 13 or more games out of 17 games played.


There is a working method called random.  The method accepts no parameters (empty parentheses) and returns a random value from 0 to 1.


Example: random() yields a value in the interval [0, 1)

Task: Appropriately initialize the value of 'prob' that represents the probability that the team described (which has a 50% chance to win any game) would win at least 13 games out of 17 games played.  Simulate MANY Trials (about 100,000) to obtain an accurate estimation.
