Jeopardy!

Welcome to the Jeopardy section of the CS Tutoring Center. This section is devoted to the classic game show Jeopardy created by Merv Griffin. This is not a fan site but a section devoted to analyzing a classic game of mathematics!

While it may not seem like math, the game is actually full of it. This model will calculate the theoretical cash prize in a game of Jeopardy! It will also show two computer model simulations; one will simulate the theoretical model while the other will simulate the actual regular show.

Listed below are the resources you will need. I hope you enjoy reading the model and I encourage you to spread this around like wildfire!!!!!!!!!.

The model is given in pdf format. Right click and "save target as" to save it.
