Oh gods of statistics.... The current concept numbing my brain - TopicsExpress



          

Oh gods of statistics.... The current concept numbing my brain reminds me (not very fondly) of those stupid word problems from HS math class. If the red train leaves the Paris station at half past two in the morning traveling at 100kph and the Blue train leaves Berlin at midnight traveling 110kph and a crying baby has a stomach ache on the third unnamed train that is also full of partying college kids, what time will all the trains derail causing a multi fatality international incident and stopping the baby from crying? Would you call the unnamed train Purple? Where would it have left from if it met the other trains at intersection Y? You know... or something like that. Disclaimer: I am not responsible for the migraine that you will undoubtedly get by trying to work this problem Sean Duncan) bc I made it all up. Oh, but.... for reals.... Formal Addition Rule.... sheesh.
