Hey guys, as someone pointed out there's a small error at 9:57. When the extra edge is added there's actually 4 total shortest paths (not 3). So the betweenness score would go down to 1/2 instead of 2/3. Just wanted to clear that up!
are limited (for good colleges). You have told me the similarities between mechanical and aerospace and other fields and after watching 20-30 of your vids i finally know what to do in life.thanks for showing me a way👌. Hope u be successful in life
@MajorPrep bro even u have inspired me to do aerospace engineer,but the seats here in India are limited (for good colleges). You have told me the similarities between mechanical and aerospace and other fields and after watching 20-30 of your vids i finally know what to do in life.thanks for showing me a way👌. Hope u be successful in life.
What is the name of those connection graphs? I would like to be able to make my own.
but what i a criminal uses this knowledge?
1+1=2
Please do now a Mathematics used to comit crime
1. Use a good random number generator to select your target
2. Do not contact people from disparate social groups or have too many contacts when planning your crime
3. Simulate your alibi using a proper physics engine and stage the scene accordingly
Martin S you mean finance?
@@letao12 I'm calling the fucking cops
Step 1: Make the perfect pentagram to summon the devil, geometry is needed.
Step 2: Sell Soul
Step 3: Profit

So, in case you want to commit a crime and not get caught:
1. Learn some math and criminalistics
2. Get a math PhD, and use your knowledge to reverse those formulas to your advantage
3. Fall in love with math
4. Now you don't want to commit a crime, neither you have time for that
5. You are satisfied an not caught
How about just commiting the crime, leave no traces, and then when your done move out the country.
I would say master a field, not fall in love
@@solo6264 Pretty much. Altough, leaving no traces is VERY difficult. You leave traces even just being online, and you don't even need to commit any crime. Remember that your computer has an IP address and even though you use a VPN (hiding your real IP), it is still possible to track it down. So if you're thinking of commiting a cybercrime, think twice, maybe more. Is it really worth it? Are your skills and knowledge good enough to fool the best security experts out there? Different example: Don't forget that there are a lot of people on the world. Even if you live somewhere far from civilization, you're still somehow connected to everyone. Chances are that when you commit a crime, there's going to be at least one witness. People tend to follow some patterns when travelling, walking, etc. Those patterns could be quite easily observed, and once you know the pattern, it's kind of easier to predict next move. You can even see that with old videogames. They've been programmed with certain patterns in mind. And that's not because in past it was due to limitation of memory and the instruction set of the processors. The patterns were intentional, so players would have it easier to play the game. Some players observed the patterns and learned to play and master the game. Those players were winning championships in arcades.
@@CZghost Are you in a police department?😅😛
Lol interesting but detectives catch criminals without math just fine with logic. I guess math could help some detectives who don't have those same skills.
As an ex-con majoring in Math I find this hilarious. I'm picturing a commanding officer saying "ok team, here's the plan:
p¡,j= k Σ [ Φij/term₁ + (1-Φij)(ʙʳ⁻ʷ)/term₂ ]
ok? Any questions?"
ROFL! Thank you this made my day!!
TV series coming next summer: NYPhD
xnick niiice😂👍
Hahahaha! Lol-ing before bedtime here!
Lol 👍
Bro just get your math PhD I know you want to.
Can stop believing Women and used evidence calculation details try piece together what happened. It might require some victim blaming.trying figure out what happened
@@osmosisjones4912 ?
Oi! Shut up! He'll stop making videos if he does that!
Plague Doctor selfish!
@@osmosisjones4912 BUT MATH IS A SEXIST RACIST HOMOPHOBIC TRANSPHOBIC CONSTRUCT OF WHITE MEN!
The problem is .
Math is never taught this way....it's taught in such a way that there's no clear relationship of it ,with real world phenomena and thus, it's seems so hard..if this is how math formulas are taught, with deduction of a real event in the world in a mathematical way to the arrival of the formula ,I'm pretty sure we would all appreciate it.. otherwise the professor will come in class, call the variables some names and make you cram that formula... Those who are good at cramming will pass those who aren't will fail... if asked to explain the math in a real world situation it's hard for you..but you know the formula but not how to use it
underrated comment lol
I was kinda lucky I guess, because in my studies some professors made me realize how math is much more empirical and practical than I thought, though it didnt help me much lol
If you're wise enough, you can use that math knowledge to analyse anything bc math exists everywhere. If math wasn't taught in a good way euler, einstein, hawking and newton would never discover so many ground breaking theories proved to be true in any field in this world.
This is a false dichotomy. You can teach math in a way that is interesting, intuitive, and deductive rather than based on pure memorization WITHOUT having to use real world analogies or examples at all. Here's two extreme examples to illustrate my point, let me know which style of teaching would make it easier for you:
1. "Hi, kids, today we will learn about integrals, one of the two main operations in calculus. They are used a lot in real life to, for example, measure the areas and volumes of irregularly shaped objects, which is extremely useful in architecture. We can achieve these things with the following formulas. Start memorizing them now."
2. "Hi, kids, today we will learn about integrals, which are the areas bounded by the graph of a given function. We will discover how finite concepts can arise from adding together infinitesimal data, both through calculations as well as some cool visual representations I brought from home, and prove together a bunch of formulas building up from base axioms. Integrals also have real life applications but I'll let you look those up on your own time."
Now don't get me wrong. I don't have anything against applied mathematics *per se* (and while I don't see how practical applications make it that much easier to understand the underlying math, I definitely CAN see how being informed of the existence of practical applications makes you more motivated to want to learn). I'm just saying that a shit teacher is a shit teacher, regardless of how the course content is structured.
@@tudornaconecinii3609 It appears to me that you discredited Dennis's statement and then basically agreed with it. 😉 Though as you say it isn't necessary to know real world applications, it certainly makes a massive difference as to how much a student values and enjoys the learning, which directly affects how well they absorb and retain it. That was certainly my experience as an engineering student.
Math is the best thing that ever happened to this world, I love your videos. Could please do a video on Computational Mathematics?
Math is the only thing that has ever happened.
Deeeeeep....@@JoseLopez-hh6fp
math hasnt happened. it was already there waiting to be discovered ;)
I studied graph theory in my computer engineering classes, and it is soooo fun to whatch this video, i can not wait to show it to my teachers and classmates.
Ah yes good advice next time I decide to do mass crimes I'll use a computer to randomize my target area ty
You could totally troll this logic by picking a random house you don't live at and choosing your crime scenes as if you lived there.
The gaming community has a answer to that: the D20 (twenty sided dice)
6:12 The night's sky is clustered because of gravity as well, not just because of randomness!!!!
One of the most underrated comments!
I literally thought of a "random number"... I chose 17
I am a criminal and thanx for the video. I will mess this equation by stealing in another city.
This is a video for people who claim math has no real life use, and they you won't get any real life appliance from learning such equations
Yo dude, I totally agree with you! I hate this claim!
Theres this girl at my school who has difficulties in math... so she asked for help, i went there and explained the best i could.
It was difficult explaining 'cause she didnt understand basic, like reaaaal basic, algebra....
then when she didnt understand after my explanations, she went on a rant about 'how is this even going to help me, when and why would i use this kind of maths in my life'
That irritated me so bad lol..
Anyway, srry for long comment :/
Again, i share your opinion ! ;)
@@Hojokillerzzzz I wasn't too good at math, just good enough to get on a non math related universities. And despite I was never good at it, I knew that saying that it's useless is nonsense. Maybe if you are planning to dig holes in the ground, but it's very important if you want to be a well rounded university student. Also you need it if you want to go further, to mechanics, physics, architecture, chemistry and even as seen here solving crime or explaining some natural phenomenons. In my country the university is free, but 20% of people fail international math exams and are upset about it. If you can't pass it at 30% maybe you aren't fit to study medicine or law for free, if you want to (almost) everybody can do it
@@Hojokillerzzzz i remember in 2011 when everyone was complaining about involving the alphabet in basic middle or high school algebra and i just wouldn't get whats so difficult for them
Me an Intellectual After watching this Video
Commits Robbery in my own house.
so if u don't want to get caught use the formula and stay out of the region.
YUP THATS HOW CRIMINALS WORK.
Edit: Video was fascinating.
They work differently. The ones you are talking about let themselves become elected by idiot fucktards. These same idiot fucktards then believe everything they tell them. If you want to stop people you think are criminals you have to reverse everything you see on TV, and make sure that you do not elect anyone you are not sure about. The elected ones do not need to hide themselves behind numbers. They use these numbers as symbols in their work.
I doubt most regular criminals know about the formula
@@donlansdonlans3363 unless they're watching this video and there are some good criminals out there that plan and do research. Most are pretty stupid, though.
Its not that simple. To do that, you would have to pick places that you would want to commit the crime at. By doing that and avoiding them, you're gonna use a pattern guided by the formula and not randomness. The less random your actions the more predictable they become
These types of videos honestly make me wanna actually revise for my maths exam you make maths so much more interesting and every other subject you do keep up the good work im really enjoying these videos
Thank you so much! Your interesting applications of math have allowed me to make so many research papers!
The effort that went into this & the result of it is Pretty F**king Cool!
This is by far my most favorite video in your channel please more like this!
This video has inspired me to study Calculus lol. Really loving your videos recently, very interesting topics plus good jokes, just perfect 👌
898yoyo Calculus? This looks like a discrete case, you need to look into probability theory. Granted, you need integration for continuous probability problems, but this isn’t one of them.
898yoyo that’s what I’m doing now.
Same but from UA-cam tutorials lol
By the way if you want to learn coding too, make sure to watch indian guys tutorial videos.
This is madly interesting! I've always hated maths as a subject in school but this approach makes it fascinating even for me
Please keep videos like these up, super interesting
I love these math videos. Well done and keep up the great work.
This is one of the best videos in the last months. Very good video really liked it, didn't know anything about this. Pretty interestering.
Your channel is awesome aha, I love these type of videos. It reignites my passion for math.
Thanks a lot for amazing videos!
Love this video and the person's voice. Made me fall more in love with math.
Very nice !!! Thank you!
Thankx for this video, I recently started learning probability and your video will keep me motivative
Awesome!! Truly fascinating.
Yooooo, i just watched 3 of your videos and I must say:
You have some really fun, educative, interesting content! Wooow, i just subbed and Keep 'em coming!
You're entertaining AND informative! It is really fun listening to your videos
What a video! Pure gold!
You have THE MOST UNDEREATED youtube channel. Well done !
Can you add references in the description, please? For those of us who want to read more? Thanks!
This video is so interesting!
At 10:06, there are 4 shortest paths; there is a path through the vertex adjacent(after the introduction of new edge) to A and vertex adjacent to John.
Thank you! Pinned a comment correcting that.
One video watched and BOOM .... Subscribed!!
Using graph theory to see the "ring leader" of a group is fascinating! Never thought of that before.
Very interesting video!
Fascinating video!
My favorite video to date!!
Seems like an episode of Numb3rs. Nice keep up the good things.
I've learned more from watching 2 of your videos than I did in my entire 4th and 5th grade science classes.
R. M. Tosh it’s probably not your teachers fault, it’s primarily down to your attitude to learning.
@@Freedom-cr8jz No; I'm just stating that I have learned more from 2 videos than from those two science classes back then.
John is that one guy who sells 'stuff' in the school...
Love your videos: You're great!
This types of videos are dope.
This channel deserves over a million views
Your videos are the most interesting I’ve seen on UA-cam so fwr
It's just amazing!
I can easily recall more than 5 serialcrimes committed by the next door neighbor, and hundreds of serialcrimes commited by someone from the next town, or even from the next state....where this method wouldn't help, it would just confuse the case.
A criminal, not very bright, robbed all houses in his street within a couple of months, when the police wondered why a single home in the street was not robbed.....
I was going to say hey that sounds like the pilot episode of Numb3ers! Also, on the dots, there was an episode where he asked everyone in the room to stand in a random place. They all did so, and he pointed out how unrandom they actually were because there were no clusters. The woman FBI agent whose name is escaping me at the moment then observed "we're spread out too evenly."
Thank you, Markoolio!
6:34 This really reminded me of the book Gravity's Rainbow; this book made me like statistics.
We need more imaginary number videos since it is an area more obscure then it should be. Residue theorem seems so magical sometimes-
This is really interesting! !
Interesting and informative video. It is worth noting that although many gifted mathematicians go to work for the NSA, many of the most gifted mathematicians go to work for hedge funds and the like. Google also used to employ many gifted mathematicians.
That spinning globe next to your computer is from Wish!! Busted lol.
Very interesting thanks. The hot zone should be a doughnut shape not shown in first illustration but can see it in the actual heat map you generate.
Just loved it....
Your videos are so amazing man.. big fan
This is a good video. I lost a friend to murder and so it is a good thing to watch videos like this cause if people go missing and so on you can use them to find these missing people. So hey thank you!!
This was an excellent video
I love your videos!
Amazing and really frightening.
This video is simply.... Brilliant
My Math Stats teacher showed this video in class a couple weeks ago. Had to watch it again because I couldn't be satisfied with the one viewing.
This is so interesting! I'm rlly intrigued by Rossmos's equation, and I might use it for my IB Math Project. Do you know other videos that explain the concept more in depth?
Yo… this would be perfect for an IA/EE! Did you end up using this topic?
10:43 - Looks like my score at school was always zero. On the bright side, no one would be able to trace me down.
Liked and subscribed anyway!
Math + Law = GREATNESS AND EXCELLENCE!!!!
Amazing video!
Very well explained.
Cool videos bro keep them coming.....
I read about the in-betweenness thing in Narconomics! The application there is on law enforcement for catching drug dealers. The author suggests that instead of wasting time and effort on catching the lowest level street dealers, police should focus their attention on the wholesalers or middlemen: they likely knew the most smugglers and the best dealers. Also, often times drugs are shared between friends and families, so there should be public health and legislative efforts to discourage this kind of behaviors.
I love your videos so much
Did this video make anyone realize how much of a visual learner they are? I fully understand that equation cause of some good editing and arrows lol. Great video
Please make a series for Calculus!!
12:25 This is a partially incorrect information: although it's true that the angle it's the most important factor in determining the shape of a blood stain, element such as the texture and wettability of the surface of contact or even the drop velocity, drastically impact the final result.
Video liks this make me appreciate math a lot more
Interesting application of mathematics.
Awesome video
This reminds me of the old show " Numbers "
I felt like I was John in high school, pretty smart and nerdy but also loved exercise and played lots of sports. Also just made friends with everyone in different groups
Nice ill play around this on my next crime...
Learned the basics of graph theory in my Linear Algebra class. I can't wait to study Mathematics for Computer Sciences in 2nd year of college 😍, in which I'll learn graphs, trees, etc.
Love the music
as someone who is considering becoming a stats major this is sooooooo incredibly cool!!!!!!!
great and interesting video
I am so frustrated that I can't give more then one like to a video.
awesome reminds me of electrons probability cloud
please do more videos about covering maths in Numb3rs series
excellent video
Amazing video my man. Keep it up. I'm curious, are there graph node softwares available online, which I could use for a project of mine. I have a lot of data, and I'm not sure I'll be able to calculate it by hand.
I looked up that exact thing and couldn't find anything. I really didn't want to manually do all this for the video which is why I searched but I personally couldn't find something for free. Granted, I didn't look that hard (really skimmed page 1 of a single google search) so very possible there is something there.
I get so motivated after watching your videos then remember that my brain is too slow for this
You have awesome enunciation.
lets make this topic into a series!
good vid. nice job
Excellent
Reminds me of Isaac Asimov's science of "psychohistory" based on the particles of a gas cloud. Just like you couldn't predict where a particle of a gas cloud would end up, you could predict where the gas cloud would end up as a whole, based on wind or air pressure etc. So you couldn't predict what one individual person might do, but you could predict what a certain population of people would do as a whole, given accurate information about stressors or motivating factors coupled with the beliefs, priorities, needs and values etc held by the population.
great video
