#problem()
Charlie has two children. \
One of them is a boy born on a Tuesday. \
What is the probability that Charlie has two boys?
#solution([
$13 / 27$, which notably isn't $1/2$.
#v(2mm)
Draw a $14 times 14$ square, highlight the possible cases, and you'll see it. \
#v(2mm)
Order is very important in this problem. \
If we knew that the _first_ child was a boy born on Tuesday,
the probability of two boys would be $1/2$. \
Also consider a smaller case where a week has two days.
