The
Plinko machine first gained widespread attention when it was introduced on the popular television game show "The Price Is Right" in 1983. The game was an instant hit with both contestants and viewers, thanks to its combination of luck, suspense, and the potential for big rewards. The concept, however, is much older and is based on the principles of probability and randomness. Similar devices, often referred to as "bean machines" or "Galton boards," have been used for centuries to demonstrate statistical concepts and random distribution.
