Log_e Song - Official Lyric Video

When I first started making StatQuest videos it never dawned on me that people would try to re-do my math on their own. I was also new to explaining things and just assumed that everyone already knew that, in statistics and machine learning, when you use the log, you use base 'e'. Big rookie mistake! Ever since then, people have been re-doing my math using log base 10 and posting comments about how their math is not working out. Well, this video attempts to explain the discrepancy.

Note that you write "posting comments about how the math is working out", but I think you meant "posting comments about how the math is NOT working out".
Appreciate the videos.
@@jks234 Thanks! I updated it.
I regret listening to this before going to bed. Way too stoked now.
BAM! :)
im adding this to my playlist thank you
Awesome!
I like Log base 2 . So there. I can do math faster in the CPU that way. So there.
Log base 2 is also super popular in biology and genetics (I used to work in a genetics lab).
Hey, Josh. Love your videos!
Do you have any plan on making videos about more advanced statistics used in clinical trials? Like meta-analyses and network meta-analyses, time series, hazard ratios, and so on? I don't know if any of this is part of your daily work, but learning these topics from you would be great!
That's something I'd love to cover. The bad news is that it might not be until 2025 before I get to it...But it's something that I want to learn about and trying to get more involved in.
I loved that part at the end about people using other bases. This prompted me to ask for an explanation as to what's so special about e in ML and stats. Like, how/why did everyone just decide on e? Does it have some special property not shared by any other constant?
I actually had lyrics for "why 'e'?" in one version of this song that got cut. The reason, I believe, is that it's super easy to work with when deriving equations. The derivative of log_e(x) = 1/x, which is nice and it's also related to e^x, and the derivative of e^x = e^x, which is also super nice. Those properties make the algebra of messing with equations much easier than other bases.
@@statquest Wow ... thanks so much! That makes sense.
A certified math and stats classic
bam!
You are doing great, keep it sir !!
Thank you!
@@statquest I wish you have named it , Logeee instead , that would be more funny
@@luficerg2007 bam!
This is my favorite channel
BAM! :)
i love you statquest
:)
Drop into Australia on your world tour please 🙏
bam! :)
Great !!!!!
Thank you!
Thanks!
TRIPLE BAM!!! Thank you so much for supporting StatQuest!
Next level Josh Starmer! Loge()! Yeah.
Bam! :)
Also could you work on reinforcement learning? Thanks :)
TRIPLE BAM! Thank you so much for your support. And I hope to get to reinforcement learning.
Just in time for summer
Totally! ;)
Got my music for CFA study today, might do some quant now
bam!
Reminds me of trance music, artists like Toby Emerson in the mid 2000s.
:)
When is it dropping on Spotify?
It's there now! BAM! open.spotify.com/track/4OcFh2yFOTUqzmjjwJF5QY
But why not use 'ln'?
This came up completely independently in a course I'm doing today and its the first time I've ever seen 'log' mean log base e
That's a great question. And I wish I had a good answer for you, but I don't. :(
Ye I learnt maths in France and we only use ln, when I began to take CS courses it took me some time to realise that they use ‘log’ for the natural log
Could it be that 'log' is used in cases where you can choose which base to use? So 'ln' would be used only if it has to be base e?
@@drmelodypond I don’t think so, I have never seen ln used in English and I have seen numerous cases where log was simplified was exp like in base e
@@drmelodypond It's possible!

BAM! :)
Listen to it on 1.5x, it sounds better
1.5xbam! :)
Damn you are right 🔥🔥🔥
oh that's catchy.
:)
Sir please do some working on MLOps series
I'll keep that in mind.
Are we not supposed to use base 2 when computing entropy and other information related metrics ?
When computing entropy for two options, it's traditional, but not required, to use base 2. However, I'll be honest, 99.9% of the times I use the log() in statistics and machine learning, I use log base e.
@@statquest thanks !
Is learning Python enough for this field, or do i have to know other languages as well?
Depends on the job and your career ambitions. However, just about every coder I know knows at least 3 programming languages.
just to clarify what do you use in machine learning and statistics? ;) you should collab with 3 blue 1 brown, you both are my go to channels..
That would be a dream come true, totally.

Totally. ;)
❤ omg lol
