    The result of combat is that the weaker player is eliminated, and the stronger player loses strength equal to that of the weaker player. (For example, if "5" attacks "3", "3" will die and "5" will have strength 2.) The winning gladiator is the last one standing. Each round of combat eliminates one gladiator, so there will be two rounds of combat.

  4. Rician fading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rician_fading

    Rayleigh fading is sometimes considered a special case of Rician fading for when there is no line of sight signal. In such a case, the Rician distribution, which describes the amplitude gain in Rician fading, reduces to a Rayleigh distribution. Rician fading itself is a special case of two-wave with diffuse power (TWDP) fading.

    In probability theory and statistics, the Rayleigh distribution is a continuous probability distribution for nonnegative-valued random variables. Up to rescaling, it coincides with the chi distribution with two degrees of freedom .

    Rayleigh scattering of that light off oxygen and nitrogen molecules, and; the response of the human visual system. The strong wavelength dependence of the Rayleigh scattering (~λ −4) means that shorter wavelengths are scattered more strongly than longer wavelengths. This results in the indirect blue and violet light coming from all regions ...
