It either happens or it doesn't. It is or it isn't. Do you agree?

Probability-wise; no. Outcome-wise; yes.

"What is the probability of someone having the same birthday as you?" "50/50. It either is or isn't" I don't agree with that though.

Schrodinger's cat. It's alive AND dead. Quantum mechanics does not agree with you, boy.

Not really, on a test theres usually 4-5 choices so its not 50-50 ._.

versago Yeah, but you can either get the question right, or wrong. denieru7 Schroedinger's Cat follows the sample principle. It's either alive, or it's dead. The simple fact is that you cannot know if it is alive or dead until you open the box. Therefore, until you definitely know for sure which it is, it can be said to be both alive and dead. On the other hand, following that logic, you could also say that it's neither dead nor alive.

[quote] deeshlomo123 : So it is male or it isn't! [/quote] But you're assuming there's a equal chance of an event like that occurring. If you were to breed that pokemon 100 times, chances are you wouldn't get 50 males and 50 females.
