and back to english again: I must say that their analogy which: The attacks and originating the crocodile are rare in Australia. From both suffer immediately is unfortunate - to express it softly -. beetje has been obtained far. Because if I say the maker "to encountering and cursing in this laboratory" rare am, I wedde that the chances for those events independently lower than with that same maker and afterwards cursing in collision come. Conditional statistics simply do not multiply the chances Thomas Abeel wrote:
For sofie:
Ik moet zeggen dat hun analogie die: De "aanvallen en ontspruiten van de krokodil zijn zeldzaam in Australië. Aan allebei lijden meteen is ongelukkig - om het zachtjes uit te drukken -." is beetje ver gehaald. Omdat als ik "het Tegenkomen de schoonmaakster zeg en vervloekend in dit laboratorium" zeldzaam zijn, ik wedde dat de kansen voor die gebeurtenissen onafhankelijk lager dan met die zelfde schoonmaakster en daarna vervloekend in botsing komen. De voorwaardelijke statistieken eenvoudig vermenigvuldigt niet de kansen

To suffer both at once is - to say the least - unfortunate."
is a bit far fetched. Because if I say "Running into the cleaning lady and cursing are rare in this lab", I bet that the odds for those events independently are lower then colliding with that same cleaning lady and cursing afterwards.
Conditional statistics is not simply multiplying the odds ;)
