老土教授常說“讓數據說話”，我很讚成。但有時大家也要小心被數據耍了。
學統計課時教授說的笑話：
1. If you interrogate the data long enough, it will confess to anything.
2. A policeman sees a drunk man searching for something under a streetlight and asks what the drunk has lost. He says he lost his keys and they both look under the streetlight together. After a few minutes the policeman asks if he is sure he lost them here, and the drunk replies, no, that he lost them in the park. The policeman asks why he is searching here, and the drunk replies, "this is where the light is".
第2個笑話沒提數據，當然數據就是"this is where the light is"。
懶得翻譯，就交給Google吧。翻得好壞大家都笑一笑哈。
1. 如果你查詢數據足夠長的時間，它會承認什麽
2. 一名警察看到一個喝醉了的人，一盞路燈下尋找的東西，並要求已經失去了什麽喝醉了。他說，他失去了他的鑰匙，他們都路燈下看。幾分鍾後，警察問他是否是肯定的，他在這裏失去了他們，醉酒的答複，沒有，他失去了他們在公園裏。警察問為什麽，他正在尋找在這裏，喝醉了回複，“這是那裏的光”。
