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.
Several years ago my husband and I were staying in Brighton at a seafront hotel for the weekend.We walked around the corner to our car when to our great surpise we almost bumped into my husbands ex wife and her friend who also happened to be spending the weekend in an hotel on the seafront just a few yards away from ours.You can imagine how amazed were were at the coincidence.
