roulette_pl_calculator_specific_number: Roulette P&L betting on a specific number

Description

Calculates the potential profit or loss when someone is betting on a specific number in the roulette and keeps doubling every eighteen spins if the number hasn't appeared yet.

Usage

roulette_pl_calculator_specific_number(
  bet_minimum,
  bet_maximum,
  initial_capital,
  targeted_number,
  simulations_num,
  trials_per_sim,
  stop_loss
)

Value

A list containing the minimum, the maximum and the final balance for each simulation. Also the P&L graph for the last simulation will be plotted.

Arguments

bet_minimum

The minimum betting amount that the casino allows

bet_maximum

The maximum betting amount that the casino allows

initial_capital

The initial capital to be used

targeted_number

The specific number that we expect to be drawn (statistically speaking, this should have zero effect on the results)

simulations_num

The number of simulations to be run

trials_per_sim

The number of trials in each simulation

stop_loss

(Optional) The number of spins after which the betting amount will go back to the minimum if the targeted number hasn't appeared.
