math - Probability and Frequency -

-

i in process of creating program , have run issue involves probability. question involves trying predict number using probability , frequency. have done plenty of research on matter not find example suits personal question.

question: frequency affect probability?

let's example, going flip coin 5 times. goal heads every single time. if heads first time, lower probability heads second time? or, if heads 4 times in row; lower probability heads fifth time? safer have higher chance of getting tails fifth time after getting 4 heads in row?

no, each flip independent of subsequent flips. can x heads in row , probability of fair coin coming heads next time still 0.50.

python - Healpy: From Data to Healpix map -

Image
i have data grid rows represent theta (0, pi) , columns represent phi (0, 2*pi) , f(theta,phi) density of dark matter @ location. wanted calculate power spectrum , have decided use healpy. what can not understand how format data healpy use. if provide code (in python obvious reasons) or point me tutorial, great! have tried hand @ doing following code: #grid dimensions nrows*ncols (subject change) theta = np.linspace(0, np.pi, num=grid.shape[0])[:, none] phi = np.linspace(0, 2*np.pi, num=grid.shape[1]) nside = 512 print "pixel area: %.2f square degrees" % hp.nside2pixarea(nside, degrees=true) pix = hp.ang2pix(nside, theta, phi) healpix_map = np.zeros(hp.nside2npix(nside), dtype=np.double) healpix_map[pix] = grid but, when try execute code power spectrum. specifically, : cl = hp.anafast(healpix_map[pix], lmax=1024) i error: typeerror: bad number of pixels if point me tutorial or edit code great. more specifications: data in 2d np array , can change numrows/

i using enumerator values flags: typedef enum { = 0x00, b = 0x01u, // u has no influence, expected c = 0x02u, // u has no influence, expected ... } enum_name; volatile unsigned char* reg = someaddress; *reg |= b; according misra-c:2004 bitwise operations shall not done signed type. unfortunately, compiler iar use signed int (or short or char) underlying type of enums, , option can find relates size, not signedness ("--enum-is-int"). according iar c/c++ development guide arm , pages 169 , 211, can define type of enum s if enable iar language extensions ( -e command-line option, or project > options > c/c++ compiler > language > allow iar extensions in ide). in particular, should define "sentinel" value, make sure compiler chooses correct type. prefers signed types, , uses smallest possible integer type, sentinel should largest positive integer corresponding unsigned integer type can describe. example, typedef enum
