I just finished a summer statistics course. I thought it was going to be really difficult, but it was actually fun. I completely fell in love with statistics this summer. Don't let everyone get into your head about how much it sucks; it isn't true!
A basic understanding of statistics is soooooo important. Most decisions in politics are made based on statistics. Or rather: should be made based on statistics. Please more of this! What a great course!
I'm majoring in physical therapy, but I like learning other things other than ana-physio because I would like to invest on the stock market one day, and be versatile compared to my colleagues, and statistics looks fun!
But should it really? Cause in theory, basing it in statistics is a great idea, but in pratice the actual studies are riddled with so many holes on a fundamental level that basing it on statistics often becomes a glorified way to throw dice at the table make a decision based on the roll
communists had for utopia to have a society basing his decision on pure logic. The goulags where a result as well as no hill or disabled in the cities (they were kept away from the other in dedicated houses in the middle of nowhere) The majority of the big decisions cannot be based on statistic (go look up game theory, you can start by the prisoner's dilemma), most other should not.
Couldn't agree more! I'm trying to give lessons on how probability and statistics are used to draw conclusions from data and to make decisions (from a physicist's perspective). We have lectures on Bayes' Theorem, p-values, gaussian errors, lots of stuff.
A physicist, a chemist, and a statistician go hunting. They come upon a deer and the physicist takes a shot that misses 5 feet to the left. The chemist then takes a shot that misses 5 feet to the right. The statistician declares, "We got him!!"
The statistician get some food out of his bag because he knew the stats before coming and understand that a medium value is worthless on it's own, he compares it to the median and the quartile at the very least.
I get the joke. But I don't like it. Also, how did the physicist miss? She couldn't calculate the trajectory of the bullet? These individuals are drunk
Put these ones up next to it.... 😉😜 "Statistics are like bikinis. What they reveal is suggestive, but what they conceal is vital" "Don't use statistics as a drunken man uses lamp posts - for support rather than for illumination"
I would add, make the stats, but remember that life is not contained in it, so in the end, after taking a look a t the stats, throw them to trash and let your now more informed on the world head decide.
Hey! I love CrashCourse's content, but my wife is hard of hearing and really benefits from having captions. Is there a chance that you could upload the script to the video? We would both really appreciate it, and it would make a huge difference for the hard of hearing audience.
I have just discovered this series and i can only say thank you. I started learning statistics last year and these videos give me a much wider view of this subject, which i really appreciate
The lady with the tea wasn't just any lady! She was Dr Muriel Bristol, a scientist herself (she studied algae at the same research station where Fisher studied his plants).
I'm so happy this came out when it did. I have to take statistics this semester and I've already started to fall behind. I'm so excited for the course! thank you!!
I have an MBA and did my minor in International Marketing and let me tell you: Marketers do love statistics. SO MUCH statistics and coin tossing. It's actually very interesting and I apply it every day still. It changes your way of thinking. I'm constantly thinking in questions, hypothesis, and possibilities. Also the correlation and causation between them. It's a little bit exausting sometimes though. Am I the only one??
I'm thinking of majoring in marketing with a minor in graphic design or international business but idk if marketing is a good major to pursue? While I be financially stable with a marketing career?? Anyone have any tips or experiences they care to share?
All right! Finally, some Crash Course Math courses. I want: 1. College Math 2. College Algebra 3. Pre-Calc (Geometry/Trig), 4. Calculus I, II & III 5. Linear Algebra 6. Topology 7. Differential Equations I gotta LOTTA learning to do.
I love these crash course series. sometimes I feel just a general overview of knowledge would suffice for my application and this is a great way to get it!
I'm really excited for this series. For years I've hated statistics because I had a really boring stats lecturer at uni and I barely learnt anything, yet I know that statistics is really important. Hopefully I can learn so much more from Adriene!
The background set design for this series is *really* fantastic...props to whoever is responsible for that. Adriene is doing a great job presenting, too.
This is simply amazing. I’m just a high school student who was interested in what Statistics really was and you have done an astonishing job teaching us about it. I am looking forward to the rest of the series, and be sure to like all her videos!
40 years ago I got one degree in Marketing Management. Learned an incredible amount about Statistics and human reasoning. Those advertisements you think don't affect you? They AFFECT YOU...
How convinient, eventhough I took statistics classes in college that was a while ago then I decided to learn statistics again by myself in order to apply for a new and better job and suddenly cha cha a very cool introductory video from one of my favorite youtube chanels, could it be some kind of signal ?? perhaps statistics will help me to find it out. Thank you so much CrashCourse
Just in time, as I am trying to decide whether I should pursue a career in Data Science which, to my knowledge, is kind of like the next step in statistics :)
This video does a better job than most by emphasizing that the framework you use to answer a given question in statistics depends on the question. If you work in social sciences, for instance, your goal typically is to clarify a question so that it becomes answerable given the assets available and to recommend a course of action. The challenges are in the realm of logistics, human resources, and general critical thinking. Most of the time the relevant statistical methods needed are pretty basic, well understood, and automated. Unfortunately, intro to statistics classes often present the student with a litany of statistical methods "as if" that magically results in effective implementation.
I've read Nassim Taleb's "Dark Swan" recently and found it interesting - it's a book about uncertainty and the psychology of knowlege and decision making. It's central selling point: Statisticians (and especially economists) use Gaussian statistics (the bell curve, standard deviation) too much as most social questions are scalable: Black Swans, huge deviations form the norm that we can't predict have big impacts (think 9/11, 2008 financial crisis. The 1980 banking crisis destroyed the whole of the banks' profits IN HISTORY in a single incident). Thought experiment: a.) The average person is 6'5" tall. What's the most likely distribution of hight? Answer: Around 6'5", with extremes more and more unlikely, as hight isn't scalable. b.) Two people in the room have a total net income of 1 Mio USD. What's the most likely distribution of wealth? Answer: 50k USD and 950k USD. Wealth doesn't distribute around a mean, the net worth of the 2000 billionaires is 7,5 Trillion. 8 of them are richer than the world's poorest half. Wealth is scalable. The proposed problem with most social sciences: their models often confuse b.) with a.).
wow!!! never knew statistics was this interesting and useful. when i chose statistics as one of my subjects for AS level, i really wasn't looking forward to it. i just chose it because it "looked easy" to me plus it was a perfect combination for my business course but then i realized that it's all concerning probability so i gave up trying cause i really hate probability. now though, i have a new hope, i have the feeling that i didnt make any mistake by choosing this course, thanks for enlightening me. i really love it now. i still wish though that i had you as my teacher.
Statistics, like astronomy, is something I have a pretty good handle on. I'm excited for this because, like the Astronomy series, I think you're about to teach me quite a few things I don't know I don't know.
Hey I’m taking a stats course but because of my school planning I’ve not been able to have a lesson in 3 months This is so going to help me so much Thank you
-There's no escaping data, no denying statistics, for as we both know, without statistics we would not exist. -It is statistics that created us, statistics that connects us, statistics that pulls us, that guides us, that drives us; it is statistics that defines, statistics that binds us. -We are here because of you, CrashCourse. We are here to learn from you what you’ve used to learn from us - statistics!
today i built my schedule for my second semester of college. math in general has always frustrated me as i simply cannot understand it. i don’t have a math class now, but next semester i have into to statistics. i’ve very nervous, but i’m going to try to prepare using videos like these and the wonderful tutor at my school. wish me luck. if anyone has any tips/tricks for into to statistics, please share. :)
Thank gods she talks slower than other CC presenters, the subject can be tricky, and too fast paced exposure makes it harder to understand to some people, which is my experience with CC Physics
My first programming job allowed me to bond with my Aunt, the marketer, over the tools we used. We both used SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences). I was developing and training a sentiment analysis algorithm using Facebook/Twitter to sell as a dashboard component, and she determines marketing campaign success for her client's products. Just knowing the basics of how to properly analyze something using Statistics can allow you to recognize when you are being taken for a ride. Well, Statistics and Heuristics.
There are two types of people in the world: Someone who searched this topic driven by school related things Someone who really wanted to learn statistics
WOW.....I have never liked or understood math at all but having to take math for my degree in ECE & finding out that statistics would count....I thought why not look into statistics & see if I can understand it.....& OMG the way you explain things makes me think I can actually GET THIS!!!!….. Totally switching classes now!!!!!
I used inferential statistics in my previous job as a quality control manager, we couldn’t sample all parts made but took a sample based on the quantity of parts made.
Because it's kinda on topic - here are my favourite statistics (both are true, even if most people need a moment to understand that fact): 1) The vatican has two popes per square kilometer (or four, if you're counting living ex-popes). 2) Most people have more legs than the average person.
1. The Vatican is only half a square kilometre large (actually around 0.44 km², thus making it around 2,2727... popes/km², though for this fact, it's close enough). 2. If people haven't got two legs, they're more likely to have less legs than more (not to mention it's easier to lose than getting one) which shifts the averidge from 2 a bit towards to 1.
Eric Nash got mad when they dismissed game theory and communism in the economics series, being finished with the topic is fine treating them as trivial...
Finally Crash Course Statistics, I have been waiting for this forever! (Makes little dance, than realises that my exam is tommorrow and that these video's come out to late) But still amazing!
Please do a week on inferential statistics and measuring statistical significance. I'm afraid to admit this publicly, but I am a psychology teacher, and I suffer from major math anxiety, so when we get into psychological stats, I can use all the help I can get!! Was hoping that Hank would a stats lesson as part of "Crash Course Psychology," so this is the next chance to help me (and more importantly my students), get a better grip!
Real order doesn't really exist in nature. Statistics are all we have. So let us do it our best. However, sometimes, we don't even have proper data. Proper Descriptive Statistics .So we use Inferential Statistics, allowing use to project small data to big data.
I took a statistic course last semester and even though much of what was said sound familiar I can’t really recall any of the theory that backs it up, you know like … if a person test N cups of tea and rightly guess x how sure we can be she indeed can tell the difference? Or the smart-vibe example. Looking forward to see this and more problems solve in episodes to come.

I just finished a summer statistics course. I thought it was going to be really difficult, but it was actually fun. I completely fell in love with statistics this summer. Don't let everyone get into your head about how much it sucks; it isn't true!
I’m halfway through my first year of a psychology and I can see this being endlessly helpful
A basic understanding of statistics is soooooo important. Most decisions in politics are made based on statistics. Or rather: should be made based on statistics. Please more of this! What a great course!
I'm majoring in physical therapy, but I like learning other things other than ana-physio because I would like to invest on the stock market one day, and be versatile compared to my colleagues, and statistics looks fun!
yes more Logical based decisions instead of the Ideological based ones of today. 😕
But should it really? Cause in theory, basing it in statistics is a great idea, but in pratice the actual studies are riddled with so many holes on a fundamental level that basing it on statistics often becomes a glorified way to throw dice at the table make a decision based on the roll
communists had for utopia to have a society basing his decision on pure logic. The goulags where a result as well as no hill or disabled in the cities (they were kept away from the other in dedicated houses in the middle of nowhere)
The majority of the big decisions cannot be based on statistic (go look up game theory, you can start by the prisoner's dilemma), most other should not.
Couldn't agree more! I'm trying to give lessons on how probability and statistics are used to draw conclusions from data and to make decisions (from a physicist's perspective). We have lectures on Bayes' Theorem, p-values, gaussian errors, lots of stuff.
A physicist, a chemist, and a statistician go hunting. They come upon a deer and the physicist takes a shot that misses 5 feet to the left. The chemist then takes a shot that misses 5 feet to the right. The statistician declares, "We got him!!"
The statistician get some food out of his bag because he knew the stats before coming and understand that a medium value is worthless on it's own, he compares it to the median and the quartile at the very least.
Dennis Zavada I don’t get it
I get the joke. But I don't like it. Also, how did the physicist miss? She couldn't calculate the trajectory of the bullet? These individuals are drunk
What's the reason for there being a physicist or chemist? They're basically not part of the joke. Bad Joke, Bad.
The statistician says, "two data points is too small a sample to have predictive value. Also, you guys are really bad at this."
BOX PLOTS, NORMAL DISTRIBUTION AND A PIE CHART OVER A HUGE GRID AS BACKGROUND DECORATION! You're doing it right.
"Statistics: when you don't know for sure, but doing nothing isn't an option" is going on a poster on my classroom wall, like, ASAP.
Put these ones up next to it.... 😉😜
"Statistics are like bikinis. What they reveal is suggestive, but what they conceal is vital"
"Don't use statistics as a drunken man uses lamp posts - for support rather than for illumination"
I would add, make the stats, but remember that life is not contained in it, so in the end, after taking a look a t the stats, throw them to trash and let your now more informed on the world head decide.
Why would anyone thumb these videos down? They're fantastic and make statistics interesting and easy to understand.
Finally Crash Course has Statistics series !!!!
I have been waiting forever!!!
Me too!!!
Statistically 50% of forever
High five!!!
I am going to eat junk food tonight to celebrate the inauguration of this series ~
Was sort of bound to happen sooner or later...
Above and Beyond Education: I knew that since Crash Course Computer Science came out !
i swear you guys know my class schedule
Hey! I love CrashCourse's content, but my wife is hard of hearing and really benefits from having captions. Is there a chance that you could upload the script to the video? We would both really appreciate it, and it would make a huge difference for the hard of hearing audience.
Here here. Just a heads up, the video is out of sync with the audio (in case you were finding it extra hard)
I just started my statistics module. This is insane.
Statistically it's not that insane.
Yeah true.
What are the chances
You mean "this are insane" not "this is insane" because data are, not data is. Depending on what you believe the definition of "is" are?!.
So glad you're covering this! Got a whole module dedicated to this at uni every year! Thank you!
1. I spent more time reading the little blurbs on the intro sequence than I'd like to admit.
2. There's literally a waffle-related subreddit.
they made r/wafflemakers because of this
You don't start every new crash course by reading every blurb?
One does not simply not pause to read all the blurbs.
Future Nursing student here. This is incredibly helpful
I have just discovered this series and i can only say thank you. I started learning statistics last year and these videos give me a much wider view of this subject, which i really appreciate
The lady with the tea wasn't just any lady! She was Dr Muriel Bristol, a scientist herself (she studied algae at the same research station where Fisher studied his plants).

It's actually very interesting and I apply it every day still. It changes your way of thinking. I'm constantly thinking in questions, hypothesis, and possibilities. Also the correlation and causation between them.
It's a little bit exausting sometimes though. Am I the only one??
Olympias I'm yet to meet a stats master or an MBA who I'd trust with $1000 at a rouelette table if it was my money.
Same here, Mario Party got me falling in love with statistics, currently looking to be great at the art. Completly changed how I see the world
I'm thinking of majoring in marketing with a minor in graphic design or international business but idk if marketing is a good major to pursue? While I be financially stable with a marketing career?? Anyone have any tips or experiences they care to share?
@@lovelyicy6395 it's upto you what you love doing...
Love this video. I'm a psychology major, but I freaking LOVE statistics, probability, and all things mathematics related.
Fantastic I love this video, I'm so looking forward to this statistics series!!!
said no one ever.
I agree with you my friends
All right! Finally, some Crash Course Math courses.
I want:
1. College Math
2. College Algebra
3. Pre-Calc (Geometry/Trig),
4. Calculus I, II & III
5. Linear Algebra
6. Topology
7. Differential Equations
I gotta LOTTA learning to do.
i love my mrs.lawton she’s my favorite teacher ever
I could’ve used this lesson about 4 yrs ago but I’ll definitely be more appreciative of stats
Thank goodness Crash Course has a statistics playlist. This channel is the reason I passed Biology in the 12th grade lol
I love these crash course series. sometimes I feel just a general overview of knowledge would suffice for my application and this is a great way to get it!
I'm really excited for this series. For years I've hated statistics because I had a really boring stats lecturer at uni and I barely learnt anything, yet I know that statistics is really important. Hopefully I can learn so much more from Adriene!
The background set design for this series is *really* fantastic...props to whoever is responsible for that. Adriene is doing a great job presenting, too.
My mayor is statistics and i'm so freaking excited ❤❤❤❤❤
Paula Rodriguez Sadiq khan is the major of London
Top meme
Technically she's not wrong, major and mayor have the same Latin root
Genetic fallacy. Technically, you're both wrong.
Good Luck.
My college didn't have a statistics major, but I took every class offered at the time! Can't wait for this series
I just read three books on statistics and this video just reinforced everything with these delightful animations. God bless you guys.
This is simply amazing. I’m just a high school student who was interested in what Statistics really was and you have done an astonishing job teaching us about it. I am looking forward to the rest of the series, and be sure to like all her videos!
This is right on time. We're studying statistics at school right now.
The description of inferential statistics is phenomenal- perfect for my 9th grade bio students. Thank you!
40 years ago I got one degree in Marketing Management. Learned an incredible amount about Statistics and human reasoning. Those advertisements you think don't affect you? They AFFECT YOU...
I just noticed the box and whisker plot in the background! great set design, really looking forward to this series progressing
Omg
The Mongol as the logo for "exceptional waffles" refers to the inside joke "Mongolians are the exception"... This is genius.
How convinient, eventhough I took statistics classes in college that was a while ago then I decided to learn statistics again by myself in order to apply for a new and better job and suddenly cha cha a very cool introductory video from one of my favorite youtube chanels, could it be some kind of signal ?? perhaps statistics will help me to find it out.
Thank you so much CrashCourse
My main hope is that there's at least one episode on Bayseian statistics
amen to that
They would have to at least cover Bayes' theorem
Veritasium have a great video on that topic.
Fakjbf - Bummer though, it sounded like the reverend isn’t invited (ergo the comment about dedication to Fisher’s branch)
Finally!
The set is insane with the normal distribution curve shelf, box and whisker plots on the left, and pie chart on the right.
Yes it's beautiful!
There's also a minecraft creeper head there
When I saw the first episode, I know this is the best Crash Course I've ever seen
I am learning statistics and you have made it too simple. Thank you.
Just in time, as I am trying to decide whether I should pursue a career in Data Science which, to my knowledge, is kind of like the next step in statistics :)

one of the best written, best presented introduction videos ever. It made me curious to learn about all of this!
This is an unbelievably important subject to cover, and I am so glad to see Crash Course covering it! Thank you so much for enriching our community!
I HAVE A STATS FINAL TOMORROW AND I WAS NEEDING THIS ALL DAY
I've been waiting for Crash Course to do a series on statistics/data analysis for so long so it's good to see this is finally here! :D
Where was this when I was in college and grad school?? So grateful for this series!!
I am taking Statistics right now in College... again... lol But I love it. It covers so much in life.
You lucky person. Mine DEFINITELY doesn't. I wish math was more engaging...
Same here! I hope we both do well!
I've read Nassim Taleb's "Dark Swan" recently and found it interesting - it's a book about uncertainty and the psychology of knowlege and decision making. It's central selling point: Statisticians (and especially economists) use Gaussian statistics (the bell curve, standard deviation) too much as most social questions are scalable: Black Swans, huge deviations form the norm that we can't predict have big impacts (think 9/11, 2008 financial crisis. The 1980 banking crisis destroyed the whole of the banks' profits IN HISTORY in a single incident).
Thought experiment: a.) The average person is 6'5" tall. What's the most likely distribution of hight? Answer: Around 6'5", with extremes more and more unlikely, as hight isn't scalable.
b.) Two people in the room have a total net income of 1 Mio USD. What's the most likely distribution of wealth? Answer: 50k USD and 950k USD. Wealth doesn't distribute around a mean, the net worth of the 2000 billionaires is 7,5 Trillion. 8 of them are richer than the world's poorest half. Wealth is scalable.
The proposed problem with most social sciences: their models often confuse b.) with a.).
man this chanel is gold
I graduate with my undergrad in statistics this April. This is sweet.
Can't wait for the episode on Hypothesis Tests!
wow!!! never knew statistics was this interesting and useful. when i chose statistics as one of my subjects for AS level, i really wasn't looking forward to it. i just chose it because it "looked easy" to me plus it was a perfect combination for my business course but then i realized that it's all concerning probability so i gave up trying cause i really hate probability. now though, i have a new hope, i have the feeling that i didnt make any mistake by choosing this course, thanks for enlightening me. i really love it now. i still wish though that i had you as my teacher.
Statistics, like astronomy, is something I have a pretty good handle on. I'm excited for this because, like the Astronomy series, I think you're about to teach me quite a few things I don't know I don't know.
Hey I’m taking a stats course but because of my school planning I’ve not been able to have a lesson in 3 months
This is so going to help me so much
Thank you
Amy Clarke why aren't you able to have a lesson in three months?
Jakob Hellmann teacher of sick , trips for other classes etc
-There's no escaping data, no denying statistics, for as we both know, without statistics we would not exist.
-It is statistics that created us, statistics that connects us, statistics that pulls us, that guides us, that drives us; it is statistics that defines, statistics that binds us.
-We are here because of you, CrashCourse. We are here to learn from you what you’ve used to learn from us - statistics!
The background !! So ingenious ! The bell graph , the pie chart , the candle graphs... So aesthetically pleasing..😍
Ok
As a mathematical statistician, I would really like to thank you.
today i built my schedule for my second semester of college. math in general has always frustrated me as i simply cannot understand it. i don’t have a math class now, but next semester i have into to statistics. i’ve very nervous, but i’m going to try to prepare using videos like these and the wonderful tutor at my school. wish me luck.
if anyone has any tips/tricks for into to statistics, please share. :)
Thank gods she talks slower than other CC presenters, the subject can be tricky, and too fast paced exposure makes it harder to understand to some people, which is my experience with CC Physics
My first programming job allowed me to bond with my Aunt, the marketer, over the tools we used. We both used SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences). I was developing and training a sentiment analysis algorithm using Facebook/Twitter to sell as a dashboard component, and she determines marketing campaign success for her client's products.
Just knowing the basics of how to properly analyze something using Statistics can allow you to recognize when you are being taken for a ride. Well, Statistics and Heuristics.
Literally just started a stats module two days ago, so this might be a godsend
Excited to see Adrienne Hill back on Crash Course 😃
Thank you!!! Perfect timing for my MBA program.
There are two types of people in the world:
Someone who searched this topic driven by school related things
Someone who really wanted to learn statistics
I’m starting college this fall and I have to take a statistics course. This series will hopefully help me out!
WOW.....I have never liked or understood math at all but having to take math for my degree in ECE & finding out that statistics would count....I thought why not look into statistics & see if I can understand it.....& OMG the way you explain things makes me think I can actually GET THIS!!!!….. Totally switching classes now!!!!!
I'm so glad this whole channel exists.
I used inferential statistics in my previous job as a quality control manager, we couldn’t sample all parts made but took a sample based on the quantity of parts made.
I'm taking a statistics module this semester. This could not have been better timed I'm so happy!!!
One semester too late. :( Anyway, I am still so glad that this series is finally being made!
I like the box-and-whisker plots on the wall.
About to begin this topic in college... Perfect timing.
Thank you for representing Yuma, AZ's sunniness in this series.
Because it's kinda on topic - here are my favourite statistics (both are true, even if most people need a moment to understand that fact):
1) The vatican has two popes per square kilometer (or four, if you're counting living ex-popes).
2) Most people have more legs than the average person.
1. The Vatican is only half a square kilometre large (actually around 0.44 km², thus making it around 2,2727... popes/km², though for this fact, it's close enough).
2. If people haven't got two legs, they're more likely to have less legs than more (not to mention it's easier to lose than getting one) which shifts the averidge from 2 a bit towards to 1.
Im taking AP stat next year, glad this is coming out now
I'm way more excited for this than I thought I'd be.
I had the hardest time staying engaged with CrashCourse Economics. I will try to stick with Statistics, but I give you no promises.
Eric Nash got mad when they dismissed game theory and communism in the economics series, being finished with the topic is fine treating them as trivial...
Sadly this is to late for my exams
*too
Same! I took stats last semester and this would have been a huge help. I sent it to my old prof, though, so he could utilize it this semester
*too
It's not like you'll really use statistics in the kitchen anyways.
where's Anna when you need Her? 😋
This is just exactly how I want to be taught this!
Finally Crash Course Statistics, I have been waiting for this forever! (Makes little dance, than realises that my exam is tommorrow and that these video's come out to late) But still amazing!
I missed her after finishing economics! yey she's back!
“One death is a tragedy
1000 deaths is just a statistic” That Russian guy during WW2
Guess Who Am I how lamfo about American guy in Iraq 100,000 is just a number
Well Stalin was actually Georgian but yeah.
Ethan Arias What do you mean?
Complaining Qoheleth You get the point...
I’m loving the idea of this series! Can’t release more soon enough
Please do a week on inferential statistics and measuring statistical significance. I'm afraid to admit this publicly, but I am a psychology teacher, and I suffer from major math anxiety, so when we get into psychological stats, I can use all the help I can get!! Was hoping that Hank would a stats lesson as part of "Crash Course Psychology," so this is the next chance to help me (and more importantly my students), get a better grip!
I'm in stats right now so if you could publish the whole course asap that would be awesome. For real though really excited for this CC.
Kudos for the bell curve bookshelf in the backround. Nice Easter egg ;-)
Yes! A series on my worst subject (maths) just in time for the start of my school year
Brilliant. This semester I have a statistics course, so the timing could hardly be better
I want that room setup!
Real order doesn't really exist in nature. Statistics are all we have. So let us do it our best.
However, sometimes, we don't even have proper data. Proper Descriptive Statistics .So we use Inferential Statistics, allowing use to project small data to big data.
I'm so happy this exists! I was so scared of statistics, but I'm not anymore!!
This is my single most anticipated Crash Course series, wonderful first episode!
So glad you're covering statistics! But please consider just saying "stats" from now on instead of "statistics".
I've been waiting for a CC series on statistics for a while. At last its here!
FINALLY! I JUST FINISHED MY STATISTICS CLASS JUST NOW! I WILL FINISH THIS !
I took a statistic course last semester and even though much of what was said sound familiar I can’t really recall any of the theory that backs it up, you know like … if a person test N cups of tea and rightly guess x how sure we can be she indeed can tell the difference? Or the smart-vibe example.
Looking forward to see this and more problems solve in episodes to come.
