Computer models derived from Generativity Theory generate a series of smooth, overlapping probability curves, each representing a possible behavior that can occur in a new situation, together comprising what Epstein calls a " probability profile ".

The reprint ( 1757 ) of this memoir lays down the axioms that positive and negative errors are equally probable, and that there are certain assignable limits within which all errors may be supposed to fall; continuous errors are discussed and a probability curve is given.

He laid out a " probability curve " of what would happen if the budget talks failed, ranging from " a chance nothing will happen " to the markets, to " a chance of a mild reaction, and a chance of a very big one ."

I don't get how the unordered and unconnected interactions of the universe ( the infinitely complex causes that shape a random event ), which in themselves seem to show no interest in leaning one way or another as a matter of course, wind up so reliably filling in probability curves the way they're supposed to.

This application skews the probability curve towards the higher numbers, as a result a roll of 3 can only occur when all four dice come up 1 ( probability 1 / 1296 ), while a roll of 18 results if " any " three dice are 6 ( probability 21 / 1296 = 7 / 432 ).
