#2nice!

#3This is pretty great. I've just started using D3 and it's pretty powerful stuff.
For those interested in data visualization - also take a look at Vega (http://trifacta.github.io/vega/) - it makes creating the simpler charts easier than using D3.

#4Very cool. Could I suggest that you display the total balls dropped somewhere as well?
Edit: just two niggles - (a) 13 bins would be better numbered 0-12 or 1-13. (b) I would round the percentages to nearest value (not down).

#5This isn't the central limit theorem. This is a binomial distribution. Nice animation though.

#6Turn that into something I can gamble on and I'd play it all day.

Why isn't it the central limit theorem? It is taking random results and building a distribution which looks normal.

good idea! i'll try and add this when have time.

#9nice!
thank you!

It is the distribution of the average of n binomial distributions (taking on values x±1)†, which according to the CLT converges to a Gaussian as n→∞.
[†] x is where it is centered.
