Lesson 27: Randomization Redux

DO TO CIRCUMSTANCES, I'VE HAD TO CHANGE THE SETTING FOR A WEEK OR TWO.

All that "randomization" can do is remove known causes, such as the causes of a coin coming up heads in a referee's flip. Because randomization *removes* cause, it cannot provide "balance" of hidden attributes. I prove this, and provide code to play with.

All questions will be answered in the following Monday's lecture.
