Predicting my future: Roll of dice
Is it possible to predict how your life is going to turn out based on random numbers. Well since I can’t anyway find my life predictable,
let me see how this works.

1• Used excel to generate the random numbers
between 1-6– Used the built in RANDBETWEEN(x,y) function where
x and y are1 and 6• Inserted a column to left for date..
– Generated series for a year. 366 days including today• Replaced the random formulae in column B by
values.. Using paste special– This is because any change in the sheet was
regenerating the random numbers. This could have been a problem when I did further analysis

2• Inserted a column on the left for month.
– Should help me show how a month is going to go• Added the column to show a qualitative value of how the
day would go– 0-2 bad, 3-4 average, 5-6 good
• Added the cumulative column– This should let me draw the line graph showing how it is going
to be in the next year– Now the problem is that with a cumulative score, the graph can
go nowhere except northwards.. Not satisfactory• Added the second Logical cumulative column
– A day which was not better than the previous adds a negative effect to the total cumulative score

• Made a pivot table to filter out how each month would go..– For each month a pie chart shows the breakup of
bad average and good days• Derived a table (trend worksheet) to see the
breakup– Gave weightage to each type (9good, 3average
and (-)3Bad)– Added a line graph to see the trend of how the
months are going to be
