Inspiration
My brother's a big pokemon nerd with lots of disposable income and he wanted me to figure out how many happy meals he's expected to buy if he wants all the holo cards. Unfortunately I'm not good with math so I'm doing a monte carlo simulation instead
What it does
The x axis is number of unique holos you want, the y axis is number of packs you need to open
How we built it
html, css, javascript, plotly, and some love for pokemon
Challenges we ran into
McDonald's closed before we had a chance to make a trip :(
Accomplishments that we're proud of
The expected number, according to 10k runs is 95. If each happy meal is $4, we're expected to spend $380. Luckily I'm from that mad Mitt Romney money
What we learned
That $380 probably could be better spent
What's next for Happy Meal Predictor
Some plastic surgery (CSS) so it doesn't look so ugly
