Introduction
A
statistical
simulation
was
performed
to
determine
the
most
frequent
game
tiles
landed
on
by
a
token
in
Monopoly.
2.
Methodology
To
determine
the
most
frequent
game
tiles,
a
random
sample
of
dice
rolls
was
generated.
The
dice
rolls
were
then
performed
on
the
game
board
and
each
tile
landed
on
was
recorded.
Additional
rules
were
applied
to
take
into
account
landing
on
the
Go
to
Jail
tile.
The
following
steps
describe
the
methodology:
Step
1:
Generate
dice
roll
data
Two
lists
of
random
numbers
between
1
and
6
was
generated.
The
random
numbers
had
a
uniform
discreet
distribution.
The
two
lists
were
added
to
generate
the
dice
roll
sequence.
Step
2:
Perform
dice
rolls
The
dice
rolls
were
performed
on
a
token
starting
on
the
Go
tile
(tile
1).
Each
landing
position
was
recorded.
Step
3:
Special
tiles
After
a
dice
roll,
if
the
token
landed
on
the
Go
to
Jail
tile
(tile
31),
the
token
was
moved
to
Jail
(tile
11)
No
account
was
taken
for
the
token
movement
cards
on
the
Community
Chest
and
Chance
tiles.
Step
4:
Repeat
dice
rolls
Steps
2
and
3
were
repeated
by
moving
the
token
by
the
value
of
the
next
dice
roll
in
the
sequence
generated
in
Step
1.
Four
simulations
were
performed
with
a
varying
number
of
dice
rolls.
