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.

when i had a vodaphone pay as you go phone, i accidently bought a £10 orange top up. i didnt realise this until later on in the day, so was a bit miffed that i had to venture back into town to exchange it. on my way out, with a friend he bumped into a man he knew, they spoke briefly and this man spoke of his annoyance of having to go back to the shop he bought his phone top up from-because he had bought a vodaphone instead of an orange one. it was the same amount, so we just did a straight swap! now that was strange! we decided that our coincidence could of been fate, so we began a breif relationship-needless to say that it was not fate, and we soon ended it!
