The Last Theory
Larry Walker is working as Research Assistant under the famous Scientist and theorist Hector Otellini. Hector has deduced a breakthtough theory which he promises to share with Walker, but goes missing before he could do that. What happened to Otellini?
As Walker investigates, he comes across the bits and pieces of Otellini’s theory. Randomness. What is randomness? And how nature deliver randomness? Why can’t we predict whether a coin will land on a head or tail? Is it just a chain of Cause-effect or is there more. Can we fit the events in the universe into an algorithm? Walker sets to find the answers to these questions and also his mentor, Otellini.
Just finished the 4th chapter after a long time, give me some feedback.

sounds great - where can we read furhter?-
I post as soon as write. But, the problem is I am short of motivation, as I don't have much feedbacks

Yes indeed what is Randomness, that's the very theme of my thesis here:

There are endlessly debates on forums about the existence or non-existence of God or Intelligent Design. Without pre-judging if God or Intelligent Design really exists or not, I would like to examine this question from a viewpoint that seems rarely be considered: the decidability of such question.
For asking this question pertains ultimately to another question "Was Randomness responsible for Life" ? Randomness may be something familiar when you think about a dice thrown at the Casino table. Now a more critical examination of this process may suggest that you didn't take into account that you could at least theorically calculate the result of the dice by knowing all the parameters and the law of physics so that in this case absolute randomness is not really the case.
Now let's take something we don't control : the digits of the famous Pi constant. For long mathematicians thought that these numbers don't follow any precise patterns. For example you cannot forecast what the result of the dice would be after throwing the dice n times. By analogy, mathematicians thought one couldn't predict what the digit of Pi would be at any nth position since there's no rational reason to believe nature would have designed Pi with something predictable in the digits.
For the rest read here:

I suppose you have disabled comments in your post? Anyway makes nice reading. I have thot in the same lines sometimes back. Something like fitting the whole universe in a single formula. That could kill randomness, coz u can predict everything using this formula. Only problem being, the number of parameters in this formula would make it virtually uncalculatable.

Sorry for comment, I forgot to set it up now it's done
As for the formula at least for Pi it's actually very short 1/2 a ligne.

It's not abt PI, its abt the formula that cud fit evrything that is happeing in the universe...

I stumbled upon a physician blog who got the formula but lost it
