A computer program is tested by 5 independent tests.
If there is an error, these tests will discover it with
probabilities 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5, respectively. Suppose
that the program contains an error. What is the probability that it
will be found
a. by at least one test?
b. by at least two tests?
c. by all five tests?
Solutions
Expert Solution
Let
- A=event that the first test finds the error
- B=event that the second test finds the error
- C=event that the third test finds the error
- D=event that the fourth test finds the error
- E=event that the fifth test finds the error
and the complement events
event
that the first test does not find the error
event
that the second test does not find the error
event
that the third test does not find the error
event
that the fourth test does not find the error
event
that the fifth test does not find the error
event
that the first test does not find the error
event
that the second test does not find the error
event
that the third test does not find the error
event
that the fourth test does not find the error
event
that the fifth test does not find the errorWe know the following probabilities
a. by at least one test?
The probability that it will be found by no test is
The probability that it will be found by at least one test is
ans: The probability that it will be found by at least one test is 0.8488
b. The probability that it will be found by no test is 0.1512 (from part a)
The probability that it will be found by exactly 1 test is
Finally, The probability that it will be found by at least two tests is
ans: The probability that it will be found by at least two tests is 0.4774
c. by all five tests?
The probability that it will be found by all five tests is
ans: The probability that it will be found by all five tests is 0.0012

A program for generating random numbers on a computer is to be
tested. The program is instructed to generate 100 single-digit
integers between 0 and 9. The frequencies of the observed integers
were as follows. At the 0.05 level of significance, is there
sufficient reason to believe that the integers are not being
generated uniformly?

Company XYZ launches a new software which is tested using 4
independent tests. If there is an error, it will be discovered with
probabilities 0.4, 0.1, 0.3 and 0.2 respectively. Suppose that the
software does contain an error. What is the probability that it
will be found
By at least one test?
(b) All four tests?

For Humming code H(15,11), write a computer program for
decoding, which outputs an error correction dictionary from
received 15bits to corrected 11bits data or maps from input as the
received 15bits to output as the corrected 11bits data.
Demonstration outputs of the running program with explanation are
required to show its correctness. Any computer programming language
is acceptable. DETAILED DESCRIPTIONS MUST BE INCLUDED FOR THE
CODE

A clinic tests patients for the novel Zombie virus. A patient is
likely to be tested positive with probability 0.25. If each patient
testing is independent, answer the questions below:
1. What is the probability that the 6th patient is tested
positive?
2. What is the probability that the 6th patient is the first one
to be tested positive? Use an appropriate random variable family
and the provide a PMF.
