Digit distributions

If you’ve ever wondered what numbers people are typing into those funny machines whilst watching Casualty of a Saturday night, here is a video explaining some of the initial work I’ve done looking into the types of numbers used in hospitals.

The results proved interesting with obvious patterns occurring with some of the digits – nought gets used A LOT. The digit nine gets used a lot in surgery too. Look at the video to find out why I think these sorts of distributions are happening.

Number Entry isn’t interesting you say?

I did some stand-up comedy based upon my research into number entry interfaces in hospitals. Don’t believe this can be done? See the video for proof.
