Probably not a duplicate…

So, some of you will get my nerdiness here. I have 32 sextillion outfit combos. But, I have a formula that calculations the percent of unique outfits I have worn since tracking. It was at 87%, meaning 13% of my outfits were duplicates. This seemed as close to impossible as my brain can fathom (and I have a big fat brain when it comes to statistics). Still, I kept asking the AI tool to evaluate the formula for counting duplicates and make sure it was calculating it correctly. It kept saying it was.

Tonight I asked it to show me all of the duplicates. This is where I really like Co-pilot. It provides a running conversation of what it is doing and how it gets boggled when things don’t align. It finally figured out what the problem was (some #N/A errors in the outfit details) and corrected it. Zero duplicate outfits in 9 months of daily tracking. I explained to it why I kept having it look and it put out a crazy stat: I would need to live billions of lifetimes before randomly stumbling into a true duplicate outfit.
