We wonder whether it will rain tomorrow, whether a particular investment will be profitable, how reliable a medical test is, or how likely something is to happen. At the same time, we are surrounded by numbers, percentages, charts and statistics. We see them in newspapers, advertisements, news reports, business decisions and even on our mobile phones.Probability and statistics help us make sense of this uncertain world.
