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 mother gave birth to her first child, which was me, on Halloween (October 31), which I have found to be a pretty common birthday. Then, I gave birthday to my first child on Christmas (December 25)! Mother Halloween, baby Christmas, I thought it was kind of neat! My mother also gave birth to all her children in October, second born, 14th, and third born 27th.
