- 14 : p-values mean getting AT LEAST as lucky as these success rates, not just as lucky.
- 15 : The streams aren't exactly independent, so this is not an exact answer, but it works as an overestimate nonetheless because they are positively correlated; if you are not convinced, you can also co…
- 16 : I said 1.19 * 10^(-12), but the figure shown on screen is correct: 1.19*10^(-11).
