“The beauty of a mathematical random walk is that it eventually visits all points in space if you walk long enough – and it always returns to its starting point.” Even so, ants don’t waste time retracing their steps. They also exercise their keen senses and communicate what they find with other ants. Bottom line: it works for them. Before long, an organized trail of thousands of ants is lined up.
Once again biologists show the power of randomness to accomplish tasks and establish order.
They don't retrace their steps;
They exercise their senses;
They communicate;
Doesn't sound entirely random to me.
And if randomness DID produce organization, the GOP would have a bigger voice in Congress.
Cheers!
