2 AnswersHistory1 decade agoProbability: what's my best chance to miss this person I really dont want to meet?
I live close to someone I really dont want to meet. We both work in the same area of town and travel to work at about the same time. The other person lives closer to work, so would get on the transportation at a later station than I. To get to work I can take one of three different transportation methods (bus line 1, bus line 2, or subway). I have no idea if the person i dont want to meet uses one particular transport or alternates between the different transports.
What strategy gives me the best chance of not meeting that person? Should I alternate my choice of transportation with a fixed pattern? Should i alternate my choice with a random pattern? Or is the best strategy to use one and only one transportation method? Or some other strategy?
When answering, please give a reason why the strategy you propose is the best one.
