Summary
| Description |
English: An example of data produced by data dredging through a bot operated by Tyler Vigen, apparently showing a close link between the best word in a spelling bee competition and the number of people in the US killed by venomous spiders. It's obviously a coincidence: with so many possible comparisons of data of things happening in the world, it is easy to find some unrelated data that shows similar trends. |
