In a science, there are important not only theories and methods, but also the general way of approaching the reality. The paradigm of the classical statistics preceded the computer revolution. The advent of the information age necessitates change of this paradigm.

It is important to be precise about this paradigm of which one definition is that by David J. Krus: "Statistics is a a modern successor of epistemology," a crystallization of the structure of epistemology as developed within the classic philosophy. Statistics thus becomes an integral part of the general theory of knowledge underlying the theory of scientific research, as it developed during the course of human history.
