Visualizing Bayes’ theorem

There is a saying that in Google they don't talk in percentages about probability,
but instead Bayes theorem is used for everything :)

Bayes Theorem is useful, and prof. Sebastian Thurn has described it in AI-class, as well as "Robots" class, and now in "Statistics".

This time, he provided a visual description that is helpful.



Here is another useful site with similar description.

For some reason, many Bayes descriptions are using "cancer" as an example.

Salman Kahn, from Kahn Academy, is using coins.
