Let's say I am trying to find out what the probability is of something  
happening in a game, and let's say that the mechanics are hidden (so  
no dice, but a computer calculation)

Let's say I do something in the game 78 times, and 19 times I have a  
'positive' result.

How sure am I that the 'positive result percentage' is 24.35897%?   
What if I do it 780 times and get 190 'positives'? 7800 and 1900?

What if the numbers are 78 and 70 positive, or 780 and 700 positive,  
or 7800 and 7000?

(yeah, I sorta skipped the statistics portion of my Mathematics  
Education)
