I'm going through the problem's in Packel's The Mathmatics of Games and Gambling.
I'm having a problem with the following quesiton:
Compute the probability of 2 or more dice showing the same number of spots when 4 dice are rolled. Hint: first compute the probability of all 4 dice being different by looking at 4 successive independent trials.
answer is 13/18
