What is this thing?
If you look for a given sequence in a randomly arranged set of characters where repitition is allowed, like in a series of cointoss (H, T) or DNA bases (A, T, G, C), how many characters must you go through before you get your desired sequence? This application tries to determine the answer to the question statistically by means of repeated random trials.
