@ -13,7 +13,10 @@ Bob generates 101 random numbers from $[0, 1]$, but deletes the lowest result.

 Say we have both of the resulting arrays, but do not know who generated each one. \
 We would like to guess which of the two was generated by Bob. \
-What is the optimal strategy, and what is its probability of guessing correctly?
+- Say we assign the array with the smallest mean to Alice. \
+  What is our probability of guessing correctly?
+- How often do we guess correctly if we instead assign \
+  the array with the smaller _minimum_ to Alice?
