Just odd!

As of the 23rd May 2022 this website is archived and will receive no further updates.

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 family were sitting around the table at a family tea party when my son, aged 15, suddenly asked me if we had ever been to Vancouver. As I answered yes, and reminded him of when, my phone started ringing in my pocket and it was my friend from Vancouver calling. We don't speak to each other than often, maybe every couple of months, and it isn't at a set time so that was really odd!!!
