These are very digestible examples to describe expected value. Builds upon the examples I remember from undergrad that only touched on probability but didn’t go further in to explaining expected value. Thank you for your videos!
It's a great insight when we can see things from real life perspective. I would love it if you could cover other topics of statistics as well, central limit theorem, distributions. It actually helps a lot when we are able to connect dots, and thank you for such an awesome video. Hope to learn more !!
Thanks! I absolutely plan to make some videos on the content you suggested. Need to first figure out the best way to make those key connections you mentioned and do so in a visual format. Thanks again
Just found out about this channel through reddit on a math subreddit, very interesting information. I love the channel, I think it’s extremely informative! If possible, please make more videos involving math or applying math in real life examples and the importance of math. Math is always something that’s intrigued me my entire life and i’m always constantly searching online for explanations of math used in real life haha. The number one thing I hear from friends and family because I love math so much is: “why is math so important? how do you even use it in real life outside of school?” I can answer that question but only partially, i’m currently just a college student hungry for more information on all sorts of topics from math, science, philosophy, etc. haha
Great content. I’m very interested in learning more about expected value specifically as it pertains to gaming and making decisions in the financial markets. Any deep dive you’re willing to do on the subject would be greatly appreciated
great video! Probability as a concept is so inherently seductively falsely intuitive, like people go in thinking "Oh I know my odds" but its so easy to be led astray by a few up front false assumptions that our brains are evolutionarily hardwired to want to make because its been beneficial to just "wing it" with a quick glance for so long, but now that we face complex problems more often, that evolutionary benefit to back-of-the-napkin on the fly calculations is diminishing in real time. Day trading ain't counting coconuts but our monkey brain wants to use the same template. (also, shout out to someone posting this to R/socialscience for bringing me here.)
could you please make a on all those topics you mentioned at the end please?? In fact a whole series on statistics would be great since there are many videos on statistics on youtube but none are as great as this.
Thank you for the compliment! I suggest you check out the "Data Intuition" playlist on my channel. I cover a lot of topics in statistics that you might find interesting. Link here: ua-cam.com/play/PLmXNcJ-VjBYrySRGXmkJMHpw6O4E--XxC.html
@@DataDemystified Thank you. I did see the playlist. Its awesome. One suggestion: Please include a little math/formula and explain it a little. I know your videos are about developing an intuitive understanding which is very important but a little math wont hurt I guess. Also could you please make more videos on basics of statistics like binomial distribution, Poisson distribution etc. A balance between intuitive explanation and math would be unlike any other. Kudos to the great work you have been doing!
This is how an educational contents should be made, insightful, fun and have a real life examples that we can apply. Well done, sir!
Thanks so much for your comment! I'm really glad you found the content useful!

Finally, understood the utility of expected vals. Thanks!

Very nice
This is a brilliant video, thanks very much professor.
Best explanation i’ve seen.

Thanks for the comment! Intuition got statistics is really not easy...that’s what I hope to get across in these videos for sure.
Amazing video I love looking at things such as maths intuitively, you have a new subscriber!
Thanks and welcome!

@@seeker4430 Thanks for the feedback! I'll definitely take it into consideration for future videos!
Formula @ 3:57 appears not technically correct for converting odds to probability (albeit no tangible difference in result)
best video for me yet!
Can we have a playlist of statistics and probability?
Anything in particular you want in that playlist?
@@DataDemystified yesss..Random variables plzz
wonderful, great, amazing content!!!!!!! thank you so much!!!!
Thank you sir, well explained
loved it! thank you!
you got a new subscriber bro
I can consider the data demystified, haha. thank you!
Ha! Thanks!
Thanks man!
You’re welcome!

great vudeio
a bit fast for a bilingual to catch. btw nicely explained though!
Thanks. Sorry if it’s too fast. You can always play it at .75x speed. Best!
