But it can go beyond data, and it can go beyond numbers.

And it's time for our mathematics curriculum to change from analog to digital, from the more classical, continuous mathematics, to the more modern, discrete mathematics the mathematics of uncertainty, of randomness, of data that being probability and statistics.

George frankly preferred numbers to people.

Now that's a big abstract number.

Eighty five percent is a really big number.

Maybe, How about I take my digital world and paint the physical world with that digital information?

So, up until now I've been talking to you about really large numbers.

Inflating local growth numbers is so endemic that reported provincial GDP growth data, when added up, are always higher than the national growth data, a mathematical impossibility. And, even when they do not doctor the numbers, local officials can game the system in another way.
