Gender salary gap in the Israeli high-tech — now the code

Several people have asked me about the technology I used to create the graphs in my recent post about the gender salary gap in the Israeli high-tech. Like 99% of the graphs I create, I used matplotlib. I have uploaded the notebook that I used for that post to Github. Here’s the link. The published version uses seaborn style settings.

The Monty Hall Problem simulator

A couple of days ago, I told to my oldest daughter about the Monty Hall problem, the famous probability puzzle with a counter-intuitive solution. My daughter didn’t believe me.

So, I decided to create a simulation Jupyter notebook.

I’ve uploaded the notebook to GitHub, in case someone else wants to play with it [link].
