Statistics and Probability Games

Probability and data literacy, with a strong emphasis on the ways statistics mislead. Goat Door runs the Monty Hall problem enough times that you stop arguing with it. Axis of Evil shows you charts that lie through axes that do not start at zero, ranges chosen to flatter, and distorted areas, and asks you to name the trick. Cause for Concern gives you two lines that move together and makes you decide between cause, reverse cause, a lurking confounder and coincidence. Distributions, correlation, sampling, Bayesian updating and torturing data until it looks significant are all covered.
