	~~==Example==~~

	For a simplified example of the law, assume that a given event happens with a probability of 0.1% in one trial. Then the probability that this unlikely event does ''not'' happen in a single trial is 99.9% = 0.999.

	In a sample of 1000 independent trials, the probability that the event does not happen in any of them is <math>0.999^{1000}</math>, or 36.8%. The probability that the event happens at least once in 1000 trials is then 1 − 0.368 = 0.632 or 63.2%. The probability that it happens at least once in 10,~~000 trials is <math>1 - 0~~.~~999^{10000} = 0.99995 = 99.995 %</math>.~~

	~~This means that this "unlikely event"~~ has ~~a probability of 63.2% of happening if 1000 chances are given, or over 99.9% for 10,000 chances. In other words, a highly unlikely event, given enough tries, is even more likely to occur.~~
