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.
What is the chance of meeting someone exactly 100 years older than yourself ....... to the day!!!?
My 3 day old daughter did when my next patient came down the corridor who needed her hip fixing after falling over on her 100th birthday the exact day my daughter was born. My 3 day old met my 100 year and 3 day old patient.
Neither can recall the incident. But it still amazing the coincidence.
