In the past, a statistician drowned while crossing a river with an average water depth of less than 1 meter.
The black swan!
There was once a student of statistics who was always speeding up at an intersection, shouting, and then slowing down again. One day he was with a passenger who was startled by his driving and asked why he was driving like that. The student replied, "It's like this, from a statistical point of view, the intersection is a high accident rate, so I'm going to take as little time as possible".
The probability!
A beggar in Parliament Square stopped a statistics expert from the Ministry of Finance and said, "I haven't eaten for three days". Hey, hey, hey, the statistics guy kindly asked, how's the situation compared to the same time last year?
This is a big cycle trend.
A statistician meets a mathematician, and the statistician says to the mathematician, "Hey, don't you guys say that if X is equal to Y and Y is equal to Z, then X is equal to Z? And the mathematician thought about it and said, "Well, if you put your left hand in a ton of 100 degrees of open water and your right hand in a ton of zero degrees of ice, that's okay, because they're only 50 degrees on average".
Equivalence and Countervailing
There is a joke about the launch of the US space shuttle Discovery in July 2006: Astronaut: Ground, ground! This is Discovery, can we launch, please? Ground: Wait, we're going to toss a coin... Ah! It's positive, discovery, launch! (In July 2006, the Discovery was leaked before launch, and many thought the launch was unlikely to be successful, but NASA insisted that the Discovery spacecraft was launched and ultimately succeeded, although it brought a lot of surprises.)
The probability is not negative, and smaller ones can happen, let alone a coin toss.
Three statisticians were out hunting when they came across a very large deer. The first statistician fired, but the bullet went about 1 meter away. The second statistician fired the same shot, without hitting, the bullet was one meter to the right. The third statistician put down the gun and excitedly shouted: "Oh, on average, we hit!"
What about the co-ordination?
A statistician, a geographer, a long-distance runner lost in the desert, who has a better chance of survival, and why? A: Long-distance runner champion because he runs fast. It's not true, it's a statistician, because statistics are the most watered-down.
The X-Tax Statistician.
A biologist, a statistician, a mathematician and a computer scientist in a picturesque African zoo. They sit in their jeep and drive to a large meadow, then stop and look at the horizon with their telescopes. The biologist shouted, "Look, there's a pack of zebras! And look right in the middle, there's a white-headed zebra! The statistician says: "Oh, that's not significant. We only know that there is a white zebra there". Mathematician: Well, in fact, we only know that there is one side of the body that is a white zebra. The computer scientist exclaimed: "Wow!
Career thinking
A statistics student spends a semester studying for a final exam. The exam is only a non-question, so he intends to bet coins to take the exam. The professor saw that the student had spent two hours flipping a coin, writing the answer, flipping a coin, writing the answer. In the end, all of them passed the exam, except for this student. The professor couldn't help but walk by and interrupt the student: "Hey, I see you're not very good at school, but if you're going to flip a coin to decide the answer, how come you haven't done it for so long?" The student said, "Oh, I'm still checking my answer".
Use probability to estimate the probability
