Okay thanks! Also thanks for those CAS guides, super helpful. Good luck Tuesday :)
No problem, but remember luken93 is the one who knows what hes doing when it comes to probability. Anyway good luck for the next weeks of exams.

Hahaha cheers.

However, does anyone know of a nice way to present your working for steady state?

Is it sufficient just to say that Pr(A long term) = b/(a + b) according to your transition matrix orrr?

Hey Luke, I'd just like to point out that on a CASIO ClassPad, the NormCDF function is different to the nSpire
On the nSpire, I believe it is normCDF(lower, upper, mean, standard deviation)
On the ClassPad, however, it is normCDF(lower, upper, standard deviation, mean)

you might like to include that on your guide just for clarity
