Could this absence happen by chance?
How the observed value compares with real history and with fair, independent random draws.
- Current absence (draws)
- 23
- Within real history
- 5.7%
- of historical values were ≥ observed
- In simulated random history
- 100.0%
- of 40 simulated histories (seed 20260601)
A gap this long is within the range you'd expect from chance alone. Historical frequency does not change the odds of any future draw.
Past frequency never changes the odds of a future draw — this only describes how remarkable the observation is.
