    After watching a lot of log scale explanation videos, this is the one that finally did it for me. Thank you very much for that! I have two clarifying questions:
    The growth rate is always comparing itself with the first data point, correct?
    How did you calculate the "% change" column? Apologize for the basic questions.
    Thanks again!

    Simply put, in a log scale the slope has meaning, it shows the rate of change. In a linear scale, as you've shown, the slope does not show the growth rate. In fact if you had a constant growth stock it would be parabolic in a linear scale.

    for the histograms , column B and C had so much difference on linear scale , but on log c is reaching almost 75 percent of B , how can that be ?

    Hi. Quick question. Which is better to use the logarithmic axis or create a measure with the daily % growth?

      Thatbis a great question :)
      I would do % growth when the audience are business users and log scale for a more trained audience.

      I think it will be very helpful to get a little bit more background on complex problems as normalization of data in no normal distribution. I am trying to score a list of customers to prioritise sellers workload. I have created a measure based on product fit, buy intent... Etc but my score is completely skew to low values. I know is a very specific example but maybe there are more people with my problem :)

    Growth is not slowing down at all, it's at a constant 10% per month...

    • @CurbalDataLabs
      @CurbalDataLabs  3 місяці тому

      Something that is constant is not growing right?
