If you are writing a program involving probabilities and it is buggy, you would first check if you are getting your probabilities right. The primary thing you would do would be to ensure that for all p: $0 \le p \le 1$It has been two semesters here at Brown for me and the highest wrong probability I ever got was 3.5. Today, however, I broke the boundaries and achieved a probability of 237.56, my personal best by a whopping margin. Given that I find nearly a 6500% increase over my previous best, I could not resist sharing my success.
I dedicate my success to hours of game-playing and not-doing anything, which in turn forces me to do things in such a hurry that I end up with state-of-art results.

You should share this with as many people as you can so..... publish a paper out of this experiment. And I know you work with people who have been impressive in choosing titles for their papers.
So here is a proposal for your seminal paper's title: "Today My Probability Was Greater Than One; I am Not Happy".
Omran: "You addressing that to me?" :D
Great result :) Hope you extend your results to negative numbers also in near future :)
lolz :D
@Rama: That is for future research ...
my personal best for 84 and didnt care to change it as it was a VTU exam! i was proud that i somehow answered something! :D
@Sandeep: Although your results do not match Abhiram's (2010) results, the venue where you obtained the results speaks volumes of how novel your work is. Congratulations :)
whattttttttttt highest probability is 3.5 ????????????????
are you ok? :-))
@Sudarshan: Yes, I beat that by a whopping margin too!
@abhiram... what do we mean by "probabililty is 3.5" ? isn't prob always on a scale of 0 to 1?
@Sudarshan: HAHA! I think you did not get the tone of my post. I was saying that my program was horribly wrong. And among wrong results, the highest "wrong" probability that I got was 3.5, a while ago. I outdid myself by a huge margin yesterday, I got 237 as my probability (wrong of course). :P
maike <3 maike!!! :P
(im starting to get embarrassed with this stuff)
@darthvader: You are right, the right way to stop embarassing yourself w.r.t. that would be to post it on a public forum :P
