I'm not a mathematician and I'm simply wondering how deterministic chaos is. I know that chaos shows that certain kinds of calculations are sensitive to initial values in unpredictable ways. What I'm wondering is if you put in the same initial values, will you end up with the same chaos? As I said, I'm not a mathematician so I may have posed the question without using math jargon or terminology. I do hope you get my gist, however.
I'm asking so that I don't say something stupid in a non-mathematical discussion elsewhere where the topic is free will and determinism.
