Ready for Another Stupid Claudia Dream?


ME TOO!

As I was drifting off last night I had kind of a dream/flash of an idea: someone needs to make an ABCs book about statistics!

Like…A is for Anscombe’s Quartet, B is for Bayesian Inference, C is for Correlation, D is for Design Matrix…

Oh waitwaitwaitwait. There could be an “applied stats” alphabet and a “theoretical stats” alphabet. That way we could get more topics. AND EACH COULD HAVE A LITTLE POEM!

Yeeeeeah.

Of course I’m sure this has been done, but still…wouldn’t it be cool? I’d read it to my spawn if I ever have a spawn (that poor child would be screwed up from the beginning, though, so I probably shouldn’t have a spawn).

(I would name my spawn “Spawn.”)

(Or “Leibniz.”)

(Yup, shouldn’t have a spawn.)

    You’d be surprised how well joke ABC books and the like sell to parents who are nerdy… its actually not a bad idea at all.
