St. Petersburg Paradox Simulation

This project explores the famous St. Petersburg paradox by simulating repeated plays of the game to observe average payouts and variance.

Average payout: $9.42 Average payout without largest win : $8.23 Highest payout: $128

Even though the expected return on the investment is infinite, there has to be a way to price it.

The source code that I used to help me in my project and a README can be found on GitHub
