right, but if *I* were to ask the question & the other numbers held constant, the answer would be off by 679 sisters. Though I suppose that's just "error", not a statistical margin of error - probably I should have between 678.8 and 679.2 more sisters. If so mom* was definitely hiding something.

*I'm assuming full sisters, but maybe I shouldn't?
@FeralRobots @markgg42 @laurenshof but you would theoretically ask someone *else* about about their sibling situation to get your numbers.
For example, of you asked *me* (someone with 0 sisters, -1.49 brothers, and 5 courses) you will find that the algorithm gives the expected result!
