Use Cases
This tool is perfect for deciding who goes first in games, demonstrating probability in classrooms, or making quick random choices in daily life (e.g., choosing between two options). It’s also useful for educational apps or probability experiments.
About Coin Flipping
A fair coin flip has a 50% chance for heads or tails. This tool uses a non-cryptographic random number generator (System.Random), sufficient for casual use. For large numbers of flips (>10,000), rendering all results may slow performance, so statistics are prioritized. Expected distribution approaches 50/50 as flip count increases (Source: Probability Theory, Feller).
Performance Considerations
For flips under 1,000, individual results are shown. Beyond that, only statistics are displayed to optimize performance. The flip animation enhances user experience but can be disabled via sound toggle for accessibility. Keyboard support (spacebar) ensures inclusivity (Source: Web Accessibility, W3C).
