I need to implement a Roulette Prediction System (Roulette Calculator).
The scenario is:
The player put on the system the values from roulette, and the system tip to him the best bet and the amount.
The system needs to be able to tip the best bet or the possible best bets.
What’s the algorithm to solve that problem?
I’m reading about Generic Algorithm.
I think it’s possible, is a lot of systems on the web they do this, an example is SpinAtaque.
Assuming a fair wheel, the only strategy I’m aware of is timing the wheel. If you know the angular velocity of the wheel and ball, you can predict with some non-trivial edge an arc of the wheel where the ball will land.
Ed Thorpe (of Beat the Dealer fame) did this with a wearable computer that he built back in the late 50’s. This assumes that you can place your bet while the wheel is already spinning (but before it begins to slow down).
