Ergodicity - The Latticework

Ergodicity

Come on! You can do it, just think through it 🙂

If ergodic = ensemble and time sequence are the same and non-ergodic = where ensemble does not equal time sequence, which does the image below capture?

In this case, the time sequence (you) does not equal the average (ensemble), so the answer is non-ergodic 🙂

We cannot overstate the importance of this concept to your thinking, decision-making, and life. Just because things work out well on average, it doesn’t mean it well work out well for you or any one individual. Beware the danger of averages – don’t be the 6 foot man who drowned in the river that was 4 feet deep on average
