Neat Google Sheets bug: The formula =combin(32,16) appears fine, and =int(combin(32,16))=combin(32,16) evaluates to TRUE, but =601080390-combin(32,16) evaluates to -0.0000002384185791 and =int(601080390-combin(32,16))=601080390-combin(32,16) evaluates to FALSE.

two ways to binarize an image to black and white- Left: threshold at 50% grey Right: show a black pixel with probability proportional to the grey level though noisy, right preserves the original image better
