My name is Dane McGuckian. This channel contains videos designed to introduce the public to my Statistics instruction site: www.statsprofessor.com/
The site was created to help students, help themselves, learn statistics. The site has over 700 short videos of me solving Statistics problems traditionally found in introductory Statistics courses.
The z score enables us to look up the probability using a z table (or Calculus or an app that calculates the area under the normal curve). Without the z value, we would have to use the binomial distribution which is computationally difficult even for powerful computers. It’s less of an issue with today’s computers but it used to be near impossible to do the calculations by hand for problems with large n values. Even fairly powerful computers struggle to do the work quickly, so programmers might still opt to use approximations like this in their code when speed is more important than precision.
hi, i did math stats, anova and regression end of last year, this year i did stochastic and im currently doing time series. I want to deepen my statistics knowlege any sugestions on which courses i should do next?
how to compute manually for Predicted Residual SS (PRESS) that SAS output in that table below (the one table with: Sum of Residuals Sum of Squared Residuals Predicted Residual SS (PRESS))
I genuinely, from the bottom of my heart, appreciate your existence. You’ve lifted the heavy burden of not understanding this rule off of my shoulders. You literally explained this in such a simple manner. THANK YOU 😭🙏
What's tha difficult part in using online resources for studying? There are too many but only one will fit your style of learning... And for me this ONE is the only video that has lead me to understand what I am seeking for after so many videos this is the only one that fit my logical understanding😂
Easiest way to explain it in my opinion is the contestant should NOT want to guess correctly at the start and because 2 of the 3 doors are empty that means the contestant has a 67% chance of ending up with an empty door which is good. If you guessed an empty door correctly, the only door left after the next step is the door with the prize.
Thank you very much i now know how to use the z table and how to find critical region iam beginner student also help in financial maths your explanation is so clear Prisca from Zimbabwe
The equation changes as soon as you offer the option of switching, the option is either blue box or yellow box in reality, which is a 50/50 chance of being both right and wrong. very simple.
No. 1/3 of the time you pick the correct one the first round. The only way to win when staying is if you were correct in the first round. That means you only win 1/3 of the time when staying. You pick the wrong one 2/3 of the time in the first round. You always win if you switch when your original pick was wrong. Which means you win 2/3 of the times when switching. You could think of it as choosing between the door you picked or both of the other doors. He just opens one of them before you've answered.
Thank you sir especially for the part b) explanation..i was so confused when trying to locate the Z value on the Z table! Now after seven hours i can confidently feel in my assignment answer 🎉😅
