Example 1
- One line: Yes
Yes
What is the result when the only line is Yes? Yes, because the chance is 100%.
Spin the Wheel
The calculator draws one non-empty line from the list you enter. A lone Yes line gives Yes. With two lines each chance is 50%. This is not the TV show.
This is not a TV episode. Numbers from a range are on the random number generator.
Result
Enter lines and spin. The result will appear here.
How it works
The calculator splits the wheel into as many equal slices as there are non-empty lines. One Yes line gives Yes, because the chance is 100%.
Two non-empty lines give each a 50% chance. Empty lines do not count, so a lone Tea among blank rows also gives Tea.
The same name twice is two slices. That name chance rises to 2/n.
This is not a game show, not a puzzle, and not a TV prize wheel. The next click draws again.
Numbers from 1–6 are on the random-number generator. Here you draw text that you entered.
Line order changes the place on the wheel, not the chance.
Formula
line chance = 1 / number of non-empty lines
Empty lines are not included in n. The draw is uniform.
How to use
- Enter Yes on the first line and keep the rest empty.
- Spin. The result is Yes.
- Add No on the second line and spin again. The result is Yes or No, 50% each.
- To get Tea for sure, keep only that one non-empty line.
Yes from one line
One non-empty line has no rival. The chance is 100%.
- Tak
- The only non-empty line. The result is certain.
- 50%
- The chance of each of two non-empty lines.
- n
- The number of non-empty lines after trimming spaces.

Frequently asked questions
What is the result when the only line is Yes?
Yes. One non-empty line has a 100% chance.
What is the result from a lone Tea line when the rest is empty?
Tea. Empty lines are not included in the draw.
Is this the TV game show?
No. The calculator draws one of your lines. There are no puzzles, prize wedges, or an episode from television.
How is the chance counted?
Each non-empty line has chance 1/n. With two lines that is 50% each.
Does line order change the chance?
No. Order only changes the place on the wheel. The chance stays 1/n.
Are two copies of the same name two slices?
Yes. Pizza twice is two equal slices. The chance of Pizza rises to 2/n.
Does the next click give the same result?
Not necessarily. Each spin draws again from the same lines.
How many lines can I enter?
As many as the field holds. Empty lines still do not count.
Is this a random-number generator?
No. That page draws numbers from a range. Here the draw is one line you typed.
Can the result be predicted?
Not from the line text. The draw uses the browser generator, not a passphrase.
