Where exactly did you get 37%?
If you do 1/e, it's approximately 37%.
This makes more sense. Go to youtube and watch this video. You need to dumb it down for peeps.

Interesting
I'm actually testing it out using a google random number generator, and so far, 2/3 times, it gives you 1, although I would need to run more trials.
That’s interesting
I'll just say hi to a dude I like, how's that?
I mean is it the optimal way?
This proof relies on the fact that if you accepted these axioms to be true, that's what the logical result is. Reject the first 37%, then choose the next best one.
Your chances of an ideal partner by saying hi, assuming he would definitely like you, is 1/(the expected number of partner). Which I estimate is going to be a 1/7 chance.
Good enough for me. I live on the edge
And I'm already bored.
aye, you're 16 an know math very well
Good take.
Thank you
And if we’re the K?
The Kth person and everyone before is rejected.
So I assume you are worried if you are the Kth person for your partner.
Definitely a K
Well I mean you don't know where the ideal person is. For all you know, you could've rejected them. But it's an optimization tool.
Sp unless you have knowledge of how many previous partners your partner has and an estimation of how many partner he'll be with you could figure out if you're the Kth person or not.
I’m the one who was rejected. Fact.
Well does he even know about the 37% rule. Otherwise, if he had a lot of partners before, then reject you, he may be coming to the age when he won't date anymore.
There’s always a different story what I’ve gotten
You lost me.

I don’t like math
Wow interesting
