Hi, After some remarks from Yoshiki, I made a new version, this one in English. http://superswikifr.ofset.org:8000/super/uploads/montyKeddamaE.004.pr this one in French http://superswikifr.ofset.org:8000/super/uploads/montyKeddama.012.pr Regards -------- Message d'origine-------- De: squeakland-bounces(a)squeakland.org de la part de Dreyfuss Pierre-André (EDU) Date: ven. 12/05/2006 18:36 À: Markus Gaelli; Squeakland Objet : [Squeakland] RE : Monty Hall Problem with 32 lines of Etoys Hi, Very interesting this problem and Matkus is specialist for very nice and short programms. It give me the idea to learn more Kedama solving it with Kedama. This is done, see http://superswikifr.ofset.org:8000/super/uploads/montyKeddama.011.pr The text in the project is in french but it is just explaining the problem. Use the 'init' button to create the turtles. Then 'jouer' (play) as often as you want. Each time 2000 turtles are playing. Green dots winning with change .Blue dots winning without change. The density of dots is an estination of the probabilities. The 3 doors are just positions right of a turtle. Winning position is marked by a yellow patch. You can hide turtles to see the patch using the button 'cache'. and show them using 'montre'.

I want to introduce squeakland to my Chinese friends
by Xinyu Liu 12 May '06

12 May '06

Hi, I am a programmer come from China. From a friend I got to know about squeakland. I think it is really a great thing. It can help kids in all ages learn something while playing. However, when I search squeakland materials in Chinese by Google, I found that there is little Chinese information about it, nor a Chinese community. So, I decide to translate some basic background of squeakland to Chinese language. I just tried a couple of pages in www.squeakland.org. But I used some images, pictures, and links from www.squeakland.org. Is it OK? Can you give me a permission that I can use them? I just want to continue this work, to try my personnal best to introduce squeak to China, to let more and more chinese people know about it. the translated Chinese pages are here: http://liuxinyu95.googlepages.com/squeakland main page http://liuxinyu95.googlepages.com/squeakland.kids.home kids play page http://liuxinyu95.googlepages.com/squeakland.plugin.download download page http://liuxinyu95.googlepages.com/squeakland.school.home school staff page http://liuxinyu95.googlepages.com/squeakland.community.home community page http://liuxinyu95.googlepages.com/squeak squeak introduce page Best regards. Yours, Liu

Hi Kevin, > Very nice ! Thx! :-) > > I found it a little hard to figure out what to do at first. Maybe a > couple of buttons would make it more obvious ? > > "Run with Door Switching" > "Run with No Switching" > > and maybe > > "Reset Stats ?" I now put out a button for resetting the stats and made some arrows pointing to the clocks, so that the users know where to start and stop it. Btw. fun thing is, that if you tick both scripts in parallel, the average chances are 0.5 to win goats and cars - how it should be... > > You inspired me to blog ... http://www.raggedclown.com/?p=11 Wow, I got blogged... :-) Cheers, Markus
