- Walter Frank Raphael Weldon (1860 - 1906) performed dice rolls on 12 dice 26,000+ times. The data was used by Pearson to develop the Chi square test.
- During WWII, John Kerrich, a prisoner at a German prison in Denmark, conducted similar experiments for 10,000 throws of coins.
- In 2009, Zac Labby (Chicago), developed a machine to repeat Weldon’s experiment.
