Regional Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. Balearic Islands PRESENTATION The study of mathematics and the concepts of statistics have always been known to be difficult disciplines that are not very attractive to students. Therefore, the Government of the Balearic Islands wanted to contribute to the Worldwide Year of Mathematics in the area of the popularization of these areas with the publishing of the comic Dice and Data. The present edition, elaborated by the Balearic Institute of Statistics (IBAE) of the Regional Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry, is an effective instrument that meets the teaching requirements of the Spanish High School study plan (ESO) and can be used to educate adults. This document’s purpose is to enable the aforementioned people to learn the information it contains in an easier and more attractive way. This publication is included in the teaching plan that was initiated by the IBAE with the purpose of communicating to the society the different studies and analyses that have been carried out by the IBAE. However, the objective of the institute is not only to make known this statistical data that shows the socio-economic reality of the Balearic Islands, but also to present a work methodology that is important in planning decisions regarding the future of our country, building on a good solid base. Finally, we would like to thank the team that worked on this publication and their par- ticipation in an experience that we consider to be innovative. We would also like to make special mention of the group of creative and graphic designers that participated in the making of this publication, having demonstrated the high quality of this sector in the Balearic Islands. Pere Sampol i Mas Vice-president of the Government of the Balearic Islands and Regional Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry PROLOGUE It is a true pleasure to preface the work that you presently have in your hands for many reasons. First of all, undoubtedly not the most important reason, but nevertheless important, would be the longstanding friendship that I have with the author, since just 35 years ago we were in the same class in the University. In those days, we would have never thought that we would meet up again for the love of statistics. The second is the very work itself, Dice and Data that, as a sharp reader, you will observe that it is much more than a comic. From the choice of names of the characters, that is definitely not random but has its story, like 55’s birthday at the end or the rock group called quartile. To point out some parts that I particularly enjoyed and that will make you think, I will begin with the historical brushstrokes that each chapter begins with, followed by an ele- gant way of explaining the difference between a continuous variable (snail trails) and a discrete variable (grasshopper leaps), and finally the method of teaching that the data contains more information than it appears to contain at first (the age problem of the four siblings) is, in the least, original. The way in which it avoids reasoning by way of charts, since they can lead you to evi- dent errors (areas of the square and rectangle), reminded me of a professor that we once had in our studies of Mathematical Science. The introduction of the concepts of population density and the age profile are very illustrative with their applications to the different cities of the Balearic Islands along with the motor vehicle accident rates, which is something that effects our youth today and that show why there are irregularities in the age profile. It is probably in chapter 8 that the author shows his genius with cartoons used to introduce index numbers depending on the old (unlabeled corked bottles) and new quan- tities (tetra briks of milk), in conjunction with the old prices (spiral notebook) and the new prices (computer screen). May these last words encourage Javier to continue with the work at hand and to delight us in the near future with a sequel.

Chapter 1 – PIERRE DE FERMAT THE GRASSHOPPER’S GONNA WIN! WHAT A RACE! I’M GOING TO MAKE A HYPOTHE- OF COURSE THE GRASSHOPPER IS LUCKILY FOR THE SIS: IT’S MOST LIKELY THAT THE GOING TO WIN, HE’S FASTER. SNAIL, THE SNAIL WILL LOSE. GRASSHOPPER STOPS BETWEEN JUMPS. IT’S AS CLEAR AS DAY! THE GIVE ME A PENCIL AND SOME WAIT A MINUTE. THE GRASSHOPPER’S GONNA WIN. PAPER AND I WILL KEEP TRACK GRASSHOPPER ADVANCES BY OF HOW THE RACE IS GOING. JUMPING AND LEAVES TRACKS… …IN CERTAIN PLACES ALONG THE WAY. THIS WAY WE CAN TRACE THE MEANWHILE, THE SNAIL ADVANCES PATH OF THE COMPETITORS. LEAVING A CONTINUOUS TRAIL BEHIND HIM. 9 Chapter 1 – PIERRE DE FERMAT YEAH, BUT THERE’S ONE PROBLEM. WE’LL CALL HIM HA, HA, HA! …WE’LL CALL “MR. SEE HOW THE GRASSHOPPER “MR. DISCRETE”! THEN THE SNAIL… CONTINUOUS”. THINKS BEFORE HE LEAPS… THEY ARE CALLED EVENTS THAT REMINDS ME THAT PERHAPS THE STUDY OF BECAUSE THEY HAPPEN, NOT THEY STUDY EVENTS WITH STATISTICS BEGAN WITH BECAUSE THEY ARE DISAS- “DISCRETE” VARIABLES AND THE STUDY OF GAMES… TROUS, BLOCKHEAD! “CONTINUOUS” VARIABLES. WE COULD MAKE A LAB AND DO SOME EXPERIMENTS! I DON’T KNOW IF THIS HAS GREAT! ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT COOL! BUT I HEARD THAT IT IS HARDER TO GUESS WHAT ONE PERSON WOULD WISH FOR THAN WHAT A MILLION PEOPLE WOULD WISH FOR. THAT JUST GAVE ME AN IDEA! LISTEN. I SAY WE PLAY A GAME… Experiments EXERCISE WE FLIP A COIN IN THE AIR 8 TIMES AND WRITE DOWN THE RESULTS. WE DO IT THREE TIMES AND WRITE DOWN ALL THE TIMES THAT HEADS COMES UP. THEN WE WILL FLIP A COIN 50 TIMES IN A ROW. I BET YOU THAT THE NUMBER OF TIMES THAT THE COIN COMES UP HEADS THIS TIME IS CLOSER TO 25 THAN IT WAS TO 4 WHEN WE FLIPPED IT THE OTHER TIMES. SO WHAT YOUR SAYING IS THAT THE MORE WE REPEAT THE EXPERIMENT, THE MORE SURE WE WILL BE TO GET IT TO COME UP HEADS HALF THE TIME WE FLIP IT. IF WE DID IT A MILLION TIMES, WE WOULD GET IT EVEN CLOSER TO BEING HALF OF THE TIMES. AND IF WE DID IT 10 MILLION TIMES, IT’D BE EVEN CLOSER. THEREFORE, THE PROBABILITY THE COIN WILL COME 1 UP HEADS OR TAILS IS CLOSER TO 2 THE MORE TIMES WE FLIP IT. 10 Chapter 1 – PIERRE DE FERMAT Experiments OK, BUT THAT’S EASY BECAUSE A COIN ONLY HAS TWO SIDES: HEAD AND TAILS, YOU WIN OR YOU LOSE. IF WE TRY THE EXPERIMENT OUT WITH A DIE, WE’LL SEE THAT THERE ARE 6 POSSIBILITIES. LET’S SEE HOW MANY TIMES 5 COMES UP. WE WILL ROLL THE DIE 90 TIMES AND WRITE DOWN THE RESULTS. LET’S SEE HOW IT TURNS OUT. SO, IF WE HAVEN’T CHEATED AND THE DIE IS NOT RIGGED, WE CAN SAY THAT WE HAVE WON 15 TIMES AND HAVE LOST 75 TIMES. 15 1 THE PROBABILITY THAT WE ROLL A 5 IS 90 OR 6 , WHILE THE PROBABILITY OF NOT 75 5 ROLLING A 5 IS 90 OR 6 . SO WE CAN SEE THAT THE PROBABILITY OF NOT ROLLING A 5 IS EQUAL TO 1 MINUS THE PROBABILITY OF SUCCEEDING. SO, THE PROBABILITY OF GUESSING THE OUTCOME OF A SOCCER MATCH BETWEEN TWO EVEN TEAMS WOULD BE 1 (SINCE THERE ARE ONLY THREE POSSIBLE OUTCOMES: 3 2 WIN, LOSS, OR TIE) AND THE PROBABILITY OF NOT GUESSING WOULD BE 3 . WHICH BRINGS US TO SEEING THAT GUESSING IS NOT ALWAYS EASY, JUST AS THE QUESTIONS IN CLASS AREN’T ALWAYS EASY, UNLESS I AM THE ONE ANSWERING.

  • Tourist Accommodation Diffusion in the Balearics, 1936-2010
    Island Studies Journal , Vol. 9, No. 2, 2014, pp. 239-258 Tourism capitalism and island urbanization: tourist accommodation diffusion in the Balearics, 1936-2010. Antoni Pons Universitat de les Illes Balears, Spain [email protected] Onofre Rullán Salamanca Universitat de les Illes Balears, Spain [email protected] & Ivan Murray Universitat de les Illes Balears, Spain [email protected] ABSTRACT: The Balearic Islands are one of the main tourism regions in Europe, and tourism has been the structural capitalist activity of urban growth there since the 1950s. Mapping tourist accommodation in the Balearics might help spatially explain the important socio-spatial transformation of a small archipelago in the Western Mediterranean. This paper analyses the diffusion of tourist accommodations as the main vehicle for urbanization since the 1950s. The tourism production of space has gone in parallel to economic cycles with particular urban expressions related to the different regimes of accumulation. Over time, as access to sea, air, and road transport, availability of investment capital, and institutional support has changed, so too have the directions of urban tourism development in the islands. Keywords : Balearic Islands, diffusion, economic cycles, Spain, tourism, tourist accommodation maps, urbanization © 2014 - Institute of Island Studies, University of Prince Edward Island, Canada. Introduction Urbanization occurs differently on different kinds of islands. Islands specializing in tourism services may feature distinctive urbanization patterns due to the dynamics of this particular industry, which involves a coincidence between spaces of production and consumption. The spatial factors affecting islands play a variety of roles here, both increasing the amount of coastline (which has proven so attractive to mass tourism) and conditioning the means of transport and access to tourism sites.

  • Surrounded by Unspoilt Mallorcan Countryside, Business Becomes Pleasure BUSINESS
    BUSINESS Surrounded by unspoilt Mallorcan countryside, business becomes pleasure BUSINESS MALLORCA Mallorca’s central location in the Mediterranean means the island is blessed with a pleasant climate with more than 2,700 hours of sunshine a year. While temperatures average around 26°C between May and September, they rarely drop beneath 13°C in early spring. Castell Son Claret is situated in the foothills of the UNESCO World Heritage listed Serra de Tramuntana. Throughout the season, the unspoilt nature of the estate and the expansive gardens form an integral part of the unique Castell experience.

  • Estudio Espeleológico De Un Sector Comprendido Entre Bini Petit Y El Puig De Moncaire : Escorca-Fornalutx, Mallorca
    ENDINS, no 24. 2001. Palma de Mallorca ESTUDIO ESPELEOLÓGICO DE UN SECTOR COMPRENDIDO ENTRE BlNl PETlT Y EL PUlG DE MONCAIRE (Escorca-Fornalutx, Mallorca) per Antoni MERINO ' Resum En aquest treball es presenten els resultats d'una serie de campanyes espeleologi- ques duites a terme en aquest sector de la serra de Tramuntana. Els resultats han estat gairebé pobres, ja que s'han localitzat i topografiat un total de 10 cavitats de petites dimen- sions. També s'ha efectuat un estudi geomorfologic que ha proporcionat importants dades de les dolines de la zona. Resumen En el presente trabajo se dan a conocer los resultados de una serie de campañas espeleológicas llevadas a cabo en este sector de la Serra de Tramuntana. Los resultados no han sido muy buenos, ya que las cavidades encontradas son de pequeñas dimensio- nes. Se han topografiado un total de 10 cavidades. También se ha hecho un estudio geomorfológico, arrojando importantes datos sobre las dolinas que hay en la zona. Abstract In this paper the results of a series of caving campaigns carried out between Bini Petit and the Puig de Moncaire on the Serra de Tramuntana are presented. The results have not been particularly profitable, as many of the caves found were of a small size. A total of ten cave surveys were completed. A geomorphological study was also made, which has yielded important data on the dolines there are in this area.

  • Can Rascadet = Descoberta Del Patrimoni Des Migjorn Itineraris + Experimentació + Activitats
    Can Rascadet = Descoberta del patrimoni des Migjorn Itineraris + Experimentació + Activitats DESCRIPCIÓ No ens equivocaríem si diguéssim que Binicodrell de Darrere és un dels punts des d’on va néixer i créixer el nucli urbà des Migjorn Gran. En temps dels musulmans (903-1287), el terme des Migjorn Gran estava dividit en nou grans extensions de terra, les alqueries, i una de les més extenses ho era Binicodrell. Posteriorment, el lloc de Binicodrell va ser poblat des del segle XIII, amb el repoblament cristià, després de la conquesta de l’illa l’any 1287. De fet, durant el segle XVI, la gent encara vivia dispersa en els camps que posteriorment serien el terme municipal des Migjorn, i va ser a partir de la cruïlla entre els llocs de Binicodrell (de Dalt o de Darrera), Binicodrellet i la Font Redona de Baix on va sorgir el que coneixem ara com Es Migjorn. La gent que treballava per aquell entorn va començar a segregar petits trossos de terra i es van construir vinyes i horts, que la gent va convertir en petites casetes. A mitjan segle XVII es va dividir entre Binicodrell de Dalt (avui conegut com a Binicodrell de Darrere) i Binicodrell de Baix. De fet, era d'una gran extensió i de les seves terres han sorgit molts llocs: Binicodrell de Darrere, Binicodrell Nou, Binicodrell de Baix, Binicodrellet, Son Pons, Santa Clara, Santa Mònica, Son Saura, Son Sauret, Sant Tomàs, Sant Francesc, Sant Adeodat, Sant Agustí Vell... Per tant, de l’actual lloc de Binicodrell de Darrere va ser l’origen del poble del terme municipal des Migjorn Gran, tal i com el coneixem ara.
