I used to do give this homework assignment--have the students
toss a coin 50 times and write down the results (H for heads and T
for tails). Some students would do this, while others would just
write down a list of H's and T's without tossing a coin. I would
walk around looking at student answers and it would be quite easy
to tell which students actually did the hw! Below are two answers.
Can you tell which one is legitimate? Why?

Answer 1: H, T, H, H, H, H, H, H, H, H, H, T, H, T, H, H, T, T, H,
T, T, H, H, T, H, T, T, T, H, H, T, H, T, T, T, T, T, T, H, T, T,
T, T, T, H, T, T, H, T, T

Answer 2: H, T, H, T, T, H, T, H, H, T, T, H, T, T, H, T, H, T, T,
H, H, T, H, H, T, H, T, H, H, T, H, H, T, T, H, T, T, H, H, T, T,
H, H, T, T, H, T, H, T, H
