th31's pass is ir1
isn't it ^^

[Jona]

Not again...

[Newray]

Mine here consists in nineteen random letters and numbers.

So you wrote it on a piece of paper you have with you allways when you login?

[Hunchman801]

No, I know it ^^

[Xenon]

You must have an insanely good memory then.

[Hunchman801]

Twenty letters and numbers isn't so long

[Xenon]

Is it like a word or just a combonation?

[Hunchman801]

Just a random combination.

[Ogre]

What's the chance that I guess it?

[Xenon]

1/1000000000?

[Jona]

That depends on how many of the twenty numbers are letters or numbers. And also how many times you try it.

[Matyuv]

hmm,

[Xenon]

It's probably his birthday code or something.

[Hunchman801]

The chance you guess it is 1/(24^20) now, or 2,4875691*10^(-28)... It would take billions of billions of years to guess it...

[Xenon]

Well, that depends on how often you try.

[Jona]

The chance you guess it is 1/(24^20) now, or 2,4875691*10^(-28)... It would take billions of billions of years to guess it...

I don't think you made the right calculation. If you want to calculate it you need to know the amount of characters that are numbers and letters. Because there's a special calculation that then allows you to calculate the amount of combinations possible (it can't be typed). And with the binomial system you can calculate the chance that you'll get it right after a specific amount of tries.

[Xenon]

But if there were other symbols in the combination like # or @ then the chanses get more slimmer.

[Jona]

Depends on how many symbols there are to choose from on the keyboard, and how many there are in comparison to letters or numbers.

[Hunchman801]

Yeah, I'm silly, it's not 24^20 but 36^20... And you can calculate it without the number of combinations! Anyways, I know what they are, I had shown that Matyuv was going to earn many Tings in his topic with them ^^

[Jona]

Huh? No, of course you need the amount of combinations to calculate the chance that you'll get it right in one try. So will you finally tell us how many of the 20 characters are letters and numbers?
