2. Attention: the question the answer to which requires knowledge of Bayes' theorem
The question came from another analyst.
Imagine the situation: we are playing Russian roulette. We have laws designed a six-shooter. I charge him with two bullets with the proviso that they will be in adjacent slots of the drum. Scrolls drum and puts it to his head, pulled the trigger. I'm still alive. I give you the gun. You have two options:
 - Scroll to the drum again, and only then pressed it to his head, pull the trigger.
 - Do not put the muzzle of the revolver scrolling to his head and pulled the trigger.
Its response must be justified.
A: To solve this problem it is necessary to use Bayes' theorem.
A full explanation of the answer is this: the correct answer is the latter. Though perhaps he sounds illogical. The point is that the bullets are in adjacent slots of the drum. To illustrate, imagine a simple scheme, where "n" - the bullet, "_" - empty nest. If we take the first icon line my shot, the scheme options would look like this:
PP _ _ _ _
PP _ _ _ _
_ _ _ PP _ _
_ _ _ _ PP _
_ _ _ PP
P _ _ _ P
If the "employer" survived the first and sixth line disappear immediately. The remaining options with the lines 2-5. If the drum is not spinning, you move to the second icon in each of the remaining line, and only the second time you face death. Chances of survival in this situation - 75 percent.
If you decide to spin the drum, you will go to option 2/6. The probability of survival will be 66, 7 percent.
However, if a bullet in the drum are not located in adjacent slots, the solution is complicated. This tricky puzzle effectively helps the employer to screen out applicants for a place in the department of marketing and trading.
