Hi everyone, it's been a little while since I saw any activity on this
list, so I decided to share what I was working on last night. It's very
beginner stuff, but it was fun to write.
I've been watching videos on khanacademy.org, and I wrote a program that
tests the concept shown in this video:
http://www.khanacademy.org/math/probability/v/dependent-probability-example-1
Here is my code:

I wrote the program using floating point variables instead of decimals
because I was having a little trouble working with decimal.Decimal. It
seemed that none of the operations I wanted to do on those variables were
allowed, so I stuck with floating points. I haven't noticed any
discrepancies in the math when I compare the program's results to my
calculator.
So anyway, there it is. Comments and criticism are welcome.
