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.
Hi. Just watched your program on BBC4 last night and noticed the item about siblings with the same birthday. Well, I myself plus my two sisters all share the day 29 over three separate months, April, May and November. I hadn't realised it was as rare as stated but figured I would add myself to your list. Not so coincidental is; both my parents share the 5th of May and March and also their anniversary falls on the 5th of October. As said, not so coincidental but it does make things remarkably easy to remember!
