Uncertainty
There is the constant notion in many fields of study that comprises of the quandary that we can’t be 100% sure about a certain strand of knowledge. Science acknowledges this by applying error margins and constantly keeping into account the significant numbers of a measurement. Though statistics provided the groundwork for numerically accounting for uncertainty, mathematics itself doesn’t face any uncertainty in the same way. This is because of its theoretical nature.Yet, the statistics of measuring uncertainty have permeated to all the sciences, pure and social.
It’s important to keep in mind that this works in the opposite direction as well. I mean, can anyone be 100% uncertain about anything? This implies that you’d have to be 100% percent certain about your uncertainty, and this is not possible. Thus, a glimmer of hope is discovered for those plagued by skepticism, those with doubts and worries.
We can’t be completely uncertain about anything.
