Sep 5, 2023 at 12:53 comment added Dominic van Essen @lyxαl - (unrelated to this post but pinging you here).- I tried to message you under the 'golfing class...' meta post, but I don't think you got it as you aren't a commenter... Anyway, please could you update the query and code used for this (='golfing class' ranking). I'm fascinated, but can't reproduce the results you're posting... Thanks!
Sep 4, 2023 at 17:44 comment added Jonathan Allan Yes fixed - by choosing twice uniformly and taking the maximum of the two the probability of picking the \$a^{\text{th}}\$ most minor of \$n\$ numbers is \$\frac{2a-1}{n^2}\$. e.g. \$P(3^{\text{rd}}\text{ smallest of }8)=\frac{5}{64}\$.
Sep 4, 2023 at 9:24 comment added Dominic van Essen @ATaco - fixed now (I think)

Rollback to Revision 1
Sep 4, 2023 at 7:02 comment added Dominic van Essen @ATaco - Yes, you're right, I realised that in the car this morning. I'm rolling-back. Oh, well... Thanks for spotting.
Sep 4, 2023 at 6:23 comment added ATaco Your first solution seems to have a 0 probability to return the smallest element? Am I reading it wrong?
