Friend-relative

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 was studying at university abroad in 1980, where I met another student who was also studying away from home. We became friends, and always together. When I mentioned her to my grandmother, who I was staying with then, she told me that my friend was actually a relative, that her grandfather was my grandfather's cousin. We remain friends and in touch till now.
