May 23, 2019 at 7:30 comment added Neithan Max @baxx Sure! After writing this improvised program, I thought I should make a small online app, to be able to explore almost any situation of this kind easily. I didn't find any. Now I'm drowned in work so for the moment I leave the code in the post and the app on my to-do list
Apr 14, 2019 at 18:10 comment added baxx @CarlesAlcolea I was just saying that it would be nice if the code you used for the post was contained within the post itself. I'm not sure if the link to repl you've posted will die at some point or not
Apr 14, 2019 at 17:58 comment added Neithan Max @baxx Sure, I just updated the post. Henry, I'm not sure I understood you. I can adapt the code to fit different needs if you want.

Apr 7, 2019 at 12:28 comment added Henry This is betting with a constant stake - but betting a fixed proportion of your wealth, such as $\frac14$ here, each time would produce a different result. You may need to adapt this to avoid fractional coins (e.g. round down unless this produces a value less than $1$ coin, in which cases bet $1$ coin)
Apr 6, 2019 at 20:19 comment added baxx Are you able to post the code that you wrote for this as well please?
