The law of truly largenumbers , attributed to Persi Diaconis and Frederick Mosteller , states that with a sample size large enough, any outrageous thing is likely to happen. ref Everitt 2002 ref Because we never find it notable when likely events occur, we highlight unlikely events and notice them more. The law seeks to debunk one element of supposed supernatural Phenomenology philosophy phenomenology . Example For a simplified example of the law, assume that a given event happens with a probability of 0.1 in one trial. Then the probability that this unlikely event does not happen in a single trial is 99.9 0.999. In a sample of 1000 independent trials, the probability that the event does not happen in any of them is math 0.999 1000 math , or 36.8 . The probability that the event happens at least once in 1000 trials is then 1 &minus 0.368 0.632 or 63.2 . The probability that it happens at least once in 10,000 trials is math 1 0.999 10000 0.99995 99.995 math . This means that this unlikely event has a probability of 63.2 of happening if 1000 chances are given, or over 99.9 for 10,000 chances. In other words, a highly unlikely event, given enough tries, is even more unlikely to not occur.

In mathematics , the phrase arbitrarily large , arbitrarily small , arbitrarily long is used in statements such as &fnof x is non negative for arbitrarily large x . which is shorthand for For every real number n , &fnof x is non negative for some values of x greater than n . This should not be confused with the phrase sufficiently large . For instance, it is true that prime numbers can be arbitrarily large since there are an infinite number of them , but it is not true that all sufficiently largenumbers are prime. Arbitrarily large does not mean infinitely large &mdash for instance, while prime numbers can be arbitrarily large, there is no such thing as an infinitely large prime, since all prime numbers as well as all other integers are finite. ref http www.xamuel.com arbitrary and infinity Infinitely Large vs. Arbitratily Large.

In such cases, the phrase arbitrarily large does not have the meaning indicated above, but is in fact logically synonymous with all. To say that there are arbitrarily long primes in arithmetic progressions arithmetic progressions of prime numbers does not mean that there is any infinitely long arithmetic progression of prime numbers there is not , nor that there is any particular arithmetic progression of prime numbers that is in some sense arbitrarily long , but rather that no matter how large a number n is, there is some arithmetic progression of prime numbers of length at least n . ref http www.ccs.neu.edu home matthias HtDP2e htdp2e part2.html 4 Arbitrarily Large Data.
