Questions

Is the coin flip really 50/50?

Yes. Each flip has an even chance of heads or tails, and earlier flips never change the next one.

Why do 100 flips not give exactly 50 heads?

Every flip is independent, so the count drifts from an even split. The gap in percent shrinks as you add more flips.

Can I flip many coins at once?

Yes. Choose 10, 100 or 1,000 and you get the heads and tails totals. Totals keep adding up until you press Reset.
