Missing digit formula?

by Stig Holmquist <stigfjorden@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Apr 6, 2008 at 03:17 PM

What formula should I use to calculate how many digits are likely to
be missing after N draws?

Will the formula 10x0.9^3N be correct or is there another one?
Based on this formula there would be 0.424 digits missing after 10
draws and exactly 0.5 after 9.5 draws. But these numbers are averages
and must have a std.dev. How should I calculate it?Would the square
root of these numbers be close enough?
