Search Course Communities: A Random Walk in One Dimension:
Applet Demonstration Course Topic(s): Probability | Stochastic
processes, discrete Markov chains This applet constructs a
histogram of the resulting path of a random walker in one
dimension. The user can change the number of steps, the
probability of walking to the right, and the number of trials.
There is a brief description ad a few guiding questions
associated with this demonstration. This is one of the random
applications in the Physlets project. (See the related resouces
for the link.) The authors notes that the applet may not run on
a Mac. To rate this resource on a 1-5 scheme, click on the
