The Birthday Paradox is a famous probability result: in a group of just 23 people, there is a greater than 50% probability that two people share a birthday. This surprises most people because 23 seems small compared to 365 days. The probability grows rapidly — with 70 people it exceeds 99.9%. It is called a paradox not because it is logically contradictory, but because it strongly violates intuition.
공식
- P
- 1 − ∏ᵢ₌₀ⁿ⁻¹ (365−i)/365 — 1 − ∏ᵢ₌₀ⁿ⁻¹ (365−i)/365
단계별 가이드
- 1P(at least one shared birthday) = 1 − P(all different)
- 2P(all different) = (365/365) × (364/365) × (363/365) × ... × ((365−n+1)/365)
- 3P(match) = 1 − ∏ᵢ₌₀ⁿ⁻¹ (365−i)/365
- 4Assumes uniform birthday distribution (actual distribution varies slightly)
