I’m trying to make a Rock Paper Scissors game, and also track the percent chance of not losing (tie and win)
I did this previously by seeing the final outcomes of the event and erasing any impossible outcomes. For example, the score is currently 2:1 and its best out of 5. To find the “probability” for the person with the 2, I do this.
(5:0),(4:1),(3:2),(2:3),(1:4),(0:5). Then I see that (1:4),(0:5),(5:0) are impossible. It comes down to (4:1),(3:2),(2:3). In that case, I check for the outcome where the first value is larger than the second. This eliminates (2:3). Then I previously put the amount of remaining possibilities that result in a win (2) over the total amount of logical possibilities (3). 2/3. But I realize now that each of the logical possibilities have different chances of happening. I tried the permutation formula, but I have no clue how to use it in this scenario. Any help would be greatly appreciated! (hinting me toward a formula).
