Abstract

Do you want to take a bet? Let’s leave it on an invitation to read your usual newspaper. We are sure you will fi nd graphs, tables, percentages, some histogram and perhaps allusions to means, modal values, medians or percentiles. It does not seem fair to bet on their appearance since it is quite common to fi nd this repertoire in them either partially or in full. The statement is as well valid for any other kind of media.
