NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "Better or Worse" - Creating Random Numbers

Random numbers are used every day in many different ways. Banks use random numbers to make codes to send information over the internet; lotteries use random numbers to choose winners; computer games use random numbers to determine what will happen next. Depending on their use, it may be important...

NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Killer Chat" - Stylometry

In "Killer Chat," the FBI has obtained a collection of online chat dialogues from a suspected killer. Charlie proposes he use Statistical Linguistic Analysis to identify the author. The style and language can essentially fingerprint the writing. Stylometry, the practice of applying statistical an...

NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "Rampage" - I...It...Itera...Iteration

In "Rampage," a suspect enters the FBI Bullpen and moves about, apparently shooting people at random. Charlie examines a diagram of the killer's path through the Bullpen and suggests it might resemble Brownian motion. In this activity, students first model this motion with ten iterations by hand...
