1. Probability and Chance, Fritz Mauthner's Studies of Improbability

You see, then, that it is possible to express in mathematical formulas the degree of probability of any particular outcome, and calculations of this kind can be applied to all sorts of cases. But I don't need to explain more than this principle to you; you see that it is possible to express in mathematical formulas what one feels. One can always feel that there is a certain degree of improbability that a \(6\) will be thrown, but the actual probability is \(\frac{1}{6}\), with two dice \(\frac{1}{36}\), and so on. Such feelings can, in a sense, be expressed in mathematical terms.
