As mentioned previously, Steven Rudich will be speaking at the
next meeting of the student seminar on October 18.

Title: Of dice and coins...

This talk will explore the problem of simulating the roll of an
n-sided die, by a bounded number of flips of a small set of biased
coins. The talk is designed to be fun and easy to understand. It
requires nothing beyond high school math. A natural (still open)
question results.
