How do you get 0.58? I make 1 - (1 - 1.76E-10)^(2^32) equal to about
0.53... Incidentally, I don't think that your eight-out-of-twelve
experimental result is particularly diagnostic when discriminating
between the various suggested answers. With such a small number of
trials the experimental results are consistent with a fairly wide range
of actual probabilities.

btw. 0.58 was a typo (that supposed to be 0.528 ;-)
