After ages of scrolling through the internet to understand what probability means, I finally reach my destination. I always felt that the analogy of 'Probability of flipping a coin' has different interpretations, one being where we can confirm our beliefs after something has happened for a large frequency of time ( Now I can confirm that it is officially called as the FREQUENTIST APPROACH ) and other one where we just know that it is equally likely. Wrapping my head around these concepts and confirming my beliefs was really a painful one. I finally feel satisfied. Thanks Brian for this video.
Awesome video! I am currently taking a module called "Reliability and Risk Analysis" that evolves around probabilities, your video was clear and helped me learn a bit more about that subject
Thanks! The Udemy courses are pretty different because they are structured from start to finish for a 4-10 hour course, whereas the RU-vid videos are designed to be standalone. Currently, there are only very small areas of overlap.
If i tell tou that my coin is fair and we launch a coin. We toss it 99 times and it comes up heads, what is the probability that we get tails if you use both approaches?
I just finished reading and studying the book E. T. Jaynes -- The probability Theory: The logic of Science and I wholeheartedly recommend to those who are interested in separating the wheat from the chaff.
