Fun fact: the door close button on the bottom left actually does nothing :D
Actually, I tested that hypothesis during my Berlin visit. In Germany, the button apparently does work at least a significant amount of the time. In my hotel, door close time without the button was 5-10 seconds and with the button it was instantaneous even if the door was only just opening.
Hi Ted. I am Kripa from Indian Statistical Institute, India. I am a researcher there. I am deeply impressed with your paper "Accurate Methods for the Statistics of Surprise and Coincidence". I have decided to use LLR mentioned in the paper. But I am facing problems implementing it! I am writing a C code. May I request you for the C code of LLR?
Happy to help.
