vlt {DAAG} | R Documentation |
Data on objects appearing in three windows on a video lottery terminal, together with the prize payout (usually 0). Observations were taken on two successive days in late 1994 at a hotel lounge north of Winnipeg, Manitoba. Each observation cost 25 cents (Canadian). The game played was `Double Diamond'.
vlt
This data frame contains the following columns:
At each play, each of three windows shows one of 7 possible objects. Apparently, the three windows are independent of each other, and the objects should appear with equal probability across the three windows. The objects are coded as follows: blank (0), single bar (1), double bar (2), triple bar (3), double diamond (5), cherries (6), and the numeral "7" (7).
Prizes (in quarters) are awarded according to the following scheme: 800 (5-5-5), 80 (7-7-7), 40 (3-3-3), 25 (2-2-2), 10 (1-1-1), 10 (6-6-6), 5 (2 "6"'s), 2 (1 "6") and 5 (any combination of "1", "2" and "3"). In addition, a "5" doubles any winning combination, e.g. (5-3-3) pays 80 and (5-3-5) pays 160.
