    Bravo professor. Clear and excellent explanation. This is one of those moments where you find yourself in a high-level math class reviewing the basics and getting a totally fresh perspective from a superior educator. Thanks Mr. Woo.

    Prof Eddie never fails to excite me about math, was trying to find a good explanation for optimizing using the Newton-Raphson method in ML a now I know it well.

    Absolutely best video on newton's method. The only single one that goes over how that formula was derived. Everyone else just took it for granted and said just use it.

    Thanks a lot, Eddie!

    You can do that nicely with a calculator. Enter 2 = and then enter Ans-(Ans^2-3)/(2*Ans) and press = a few times. 1.75, 1.732142857, 1.73205081. 1.732050808 and then it stays the same

  • @arielfuxman8868
    @arielfuxman8868 4 роки тому +1

    perhaps a stupid question, but what happens is accidentaly the tangent happens to have a slope of 0?
    How do algorithm's deal with that?

    • @sahdevsingh8858
      @sahdevsingh8858 Рік тому

      You mean the tangent is parallel to x axis, i.e. the curve itself is parallel to the x axis which mean its not any parabolic curve, a straight lin only which is either not cutting the x axis(parallel to x axis) or coinciding with the x axis, hence the solution of that equation or curve would be constant and w.r.t. y axis i.e. somewhat like y=7 or y=0(x-axis) or any other constant.
