Great Song for the Holidays!


RUDOLPH THE STATISTICIAN
(Sung to the tune of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer)

Rudolph, the statistician

Sampled data everywhere.
Mean heights and heart conditions
Calculated with great care.

All of his population

Gathered from coast to coast
Sought out his information;
He would always give the most.

Then one foggy Christmas eve

Santa came to say,
"Rudolph, with your pencil write,
What gifts I should take tonight."

Quickly he polled the children,

Then Rudolph shouted out with glee:
"Stats did provide the answer:
Give Nintendo and Barbie!"
