How long is this string?
# How many are there?
n <- length(human_flips)Now we need to figure out the length of the runs. The rle() function will make this easy for us, but I’m going to extract the information I need with a custom function called rle_table().
rle_table <- function(x) {
x |>
rle() |>
pluck("lengths") |>
table() |>
as.data.frame() |>
rename(length = Var1) |>
mutate(length = as.numeric(length))
}
# Find the runs
human_runs <- human_flips |>
rle_table()Let’s examine a histogram of the runs
ggplot(data = human_runs, aes(x = length, y = Freq)) +
geom_col()
Pseudorandom flips
Now that we’ve collected the “random” string of T’s and H’s, we’ll use R to create a pseudorandom string of T’s and H’s on the same length. Note the use of the sample() function.
pseudo_flips <- sample(c("t", "h"), size = n, replace = TRUE)
pseudo_runs <- pseudo_flips |>
rle_table()Probability theory
Finally, we’ll add a third method for computing streak lengths. The following data frame comes directly from probability theory.
# Expected number of runs of length k
random_runs <- human_runs |>
full_join(pseudo_runs, by = join_by(length)) |>
arrange(length)
random_runs <- random_runs |>
mutate(pr_k = (n - length - 1) * 2 * (1/2)^(length+2))
random_runs length Freq.x Freq.y pr_k

Finally, plot all three frequencies. Which one is which?????
# Plot the frequency of runs for both samples
random_runs |>
pivot_longer(-length, names_to = "src", values_to = "freq") |>
ggplot(aes(x = length, y = freq, color = src)) +

scale_color_discrete(guide = "none") +
