It is the ideal material for high school English elective courses and the best teaching resource for research-based learning. Statistics is a branch of mathematics that can help us better understand the world. However, it can also be misleading to some extent. How can we distinguish reliable statistics from unreliable ones? Computers enable scientists to build highly complex mathematical models to handle extremely large datasets. Such models have already been established to explain global climate change. However, scientists promptly pointed out that the effectiveness of these models is as good as the data available and that can be incorporated into them. For complex matters like climate, models struggle to account for all possible factors, so caution must be exercised when using them to predict future events.
