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.

One day we had friends come to Sydney for a holiday so we took them out to Star City Casino for dinner, after dinner a few of us walked to a roulette table to watch, when I said to my brother in law I bet you number 31 is going to come up not putting any money on it, then yep, number 31 came up, I then said to him I bet you the same number comes up again, he looked at me and said put some money on it, I didn't put any money on it and the yep, it came up again, we decide to move on to the next roulette table to see the amounts people were betting, as soon as we got there I did't say anything and number 31 landed on the wheel, as I was shocked I shook my head, as I was shaking my head I noticed that on the table opposite us the number 31 also popped up, My wife came up to me and said we need to leave as everyone was waiting for us down stairs, as we were exiting the casino there was a man wearing a shirt with the number 31 on his back, later that night I also realized that it was 31st March 2012, I don't know what this means.
