Birthdays in my family
As of the 23rd May 2022 this website is archived and will receive no further updates.
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.
My family has two odd coincidences with dates.
First: Mine, my older sister's and my parents birthdays are 22nd, 23rd, 24th and 25th various months. My younger sister breaks this one by being born on the 7th. Interesting but not that amazing.
Secondly, my and my sisters share birthdays with three of my mother's siblings (plus I also share with a cousin on my father's side).
Also, my parents and an aunt and uncle unintentionally share a wedding anniversary. My parents' wedding should have been the week before, but was delayed by a civil servant strike.
