Hi,
I don't need any help coding anything I just really am confused on this code:
Supposedly this is an example of somehing called a "random walk"
I am a little confused on the tails.append line and the output. I am confused on why there are 11 items and how this manages to ignore the heads aspect. It only tracks tails. I didn't find the video very clear at all.
Thanks

import numpy as np np.random.seed(123) tails = [0] for x in range(10) : coin = np.random.randint(0, 2) tails.append(tails[x] + coin) print(tails)It prints out: [0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 3]
