Summary

Description
English: Probability of all possible results on 4dF (that is, rolling and summing 4 Fudge dice, each with an even probability of generating -1, 0, or 1). The upper line shows the chance of achieving the given result of better, while the lower line shows the chance of achieving exactly the given result.

The graph is my own work. I multi-license it under the GFDL, CC-BY 2.5, and CC-BY 3.0. It is based on data from . I only used the first two columns. Data points documenting simple statistics cannot be copyrighted.

Construction

The output was created using gnuplot 4.0. The command file "commands" contains:

set terminal svg fname "Arial" fsize 20
set ylabel "Probability"
set xlabel "Result"
unset key
set label 10 "Chance of\nresult or better" at 0.5,0.6
set label 11 "Chance of\nexact result" at -1.4,0.13
set grid back lw 1
set border 3
set ytics nomirror
set xtics nomirror
plot "4df.csv" using 1:4 with lines lw 2, "4df.csv" using 1:5 with lines lw 2

The data file 4df.csv contains:
