Plush… statistical distributions?

with one comment

I’ve posted before on plush particles, plush organs, knitted dissections, and even plush microbes. It seems in the math/science world, there’s always some creative soul who wants to cute-ify subjects of study.

Well, that set is joined by the latest plush craze… plush… statistical distributions? (HT: Flowing Data). Less stuffed-animal-like per se than say a pillow, but the Etsy store Nausicaa Distribution is selling normal distribution shaped pillows:

If the normal distribution isn’t your thing, how about some of its friends (like t, chi-square, log-normal, uniform, weibull, cauchy, poisson, gumbel, or erlang)?

And not to mention a wide range of statistical-relevant material:
