Same Birthdays

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.

I graduated high school from the small town of Port Gibson MS in 1966. In our class of 42 students, five of us had the same birthday, Dec. 19. My name is Alice Carroll (maiden name--Sanders). I remember the names of the other 4 classmates with my birthday, but will not relate them here unless needed by the coincidence investigator.
