Expected Frequency
The baseline appearance rate implied by a game matrix, used to evaluate observed behavior without superstition language.
Game Families glossary term
Expected frequency must be matrix-specific or comparisons become misleading immediately.
Why It Matters
Expected frequency must be matrix-specific or comparisons become misleading immediately.
How Stepzero Uses It
Stepzero computes expected frequency per game matrix and uses it as a context layer for report interpretation.
Example
A frequency baseline from Pick 3 should not be reused for a different matrix without recomputation.
