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.

About 14 years ago me and my father went on a trip to London, during the spring, not on regular tourist dates that is, while there we went sightseeing all around and found a small boardgame store located in a cellar on some odd street. We decided to go inside, the room with tye games was no larger than 5x5 metres. There was one other customer in tye store. Me and my father started talking to eachother and after a while this other person comes up to us, speaking swedish. Apparantly all three of us were swedish tourists, in this small store.
