RE: Why you absolutely share the same birthday with someone else on Steemit! The Birthday Paradox, explained
The percentages were rounded to two decimal places for ease of reading the table, as I indicated above the table. Rounding, of course, sacrifices accuracy. Probability for 100 people is 99.99997%, which rounds to 100.00% at two decimal places. To reach true 100%, no rounding, you need 366 as you indicated.
To make this abundantly clear, I will add an addendum. Thanks!
im guessing this was probably apparent from the tails on the graph, which is fairly small on my phone.... carry on...
its kind of nuts that you get so much of the probablilty in the first 100
