Birth Day Celebration

understandinguncertainty.org was produced by the Winton programme for the public understanding of risk based in the Statistical Laboratory in the University of Cambridge. The aim was to help improve the way that uncertainty and risk are discussed in society, and show how probability and statistics can be both useful and entertaining.

Many of the animations were produced using Flash and will no longer work.

Although my brother and sisters and I were all born on different days of the week: MONDAY 25 June 1950 TUESDAY 29 October 1946 FRIDAY 4 June 1948 SUNDAY 9 JULY 1950 we celebrate our birthdays each year on the same day of the week. So this year, for example, our birthdays all fall on a Monday!
