Simulating Precognitive Universes

Listed in DataCite

This function simulates several universes with different rates of natural precognition abilities (Psi > 0.5) as well as a control universe where precognition does not exist (Psi = 0.5).

Description

In each simulation, I start with $10 and bet $1 that I can guess the outcome of a coin flip correctly. If I win the bet, I get back $2 and so win $1.

If I lose, I lose $1. I keep doing this 1000 times or until I run out of cash. The function plots the average amount of money I have in the different universes averaged across 10,000 simulations.

Without precognition, I don't win any money on average. With precognition of Psi = 0.53 as reported in some of Bem's experiments, I should soon make money.
