I found through google that, FLORIDA LOTTO for example has up to 52 consecutive drawings (6 months). So I think he used 52 (52 consecutive drawings every 10 years) as the total number of drawings in this example. And according to the lottery example/problem, you need to select 6 numbers which the lotto machine will output and this is the same as 6 drawings. Therefore, P(52,6).
Thank you so much! :) I really enjoy how you explain things very clearly. The only thing I missed on the lottery problem is where the 52 came from...you did clear that up at the end...I didn't know there were 52 balls in the lottery.... LOL! Tells you how often I play! :) Thanks again!!!!!!!
I appreciate the videos and the effort. The following is intended to be constructive. The high level idea was clear fairly quickly. Suggest that you get to the mechanics of how to get the answer a little sooner. Formulas aren't scary unless you go to extreme effort to avoid them and act like they are something to be feared.
Thanks Brandon Foltz! Great lecture! I wonder whether you can put all the statistics 101 into a playlist by order? I often get lost which one to listen first and next.
hi regarding the lottery example can u please mention the reason for taking 52 as n. I assumed it to be 60 as each slot will have 0 to 9 numbers and 6 being the total number of slots.
Sir it would be great if you rearranged the what are combinations video and what are permutations because in combinations video it uses a reference but permutation video comes later.
Sometimes it is hard to sequence videos when the content is intertwined. I kind of see "Combinations and Permutations" as one idea but one video covering both would be a bit much.
I am always surprised when I see down votes to THESE videos in particular. Someone has taken the time to share their knowledge and do so in a fashion that so many people are benefiting from...and someone comes along and down votes that... in any case for me...day 4 and I continue to want to watch every video Brandon publishes. Again Brandon thank you sir... You're gentleman and a scholar!
52 is the number of possible number selections (1-52) you can choose from. For Lotto Max it's 49, etc... He is implying that you choose 6 numbers from 1-52.
In the last example, n=52 because there are 49 or 52 numbers in lotto (depending on the state) and you assumed or maybe 52 numbers are being used in your state, am I right?
I think you don't gamble because you are very well versed in statistics, hence you avoid it knowing the odds of any kind of gains is astronomically low hence a waste of time and money. Haha
It's good to hear those motivating words before discussing the lessons. God bless you more Brandon and thanks for your very helpful videos. ;)

I love you so much. You are such an amazing teacher, and a lifesaver to us all!
Thank you so much for all these lessons! I have P(150, 3) phrases to express my appreciation!

Hello! All of my videos are organized by playlist and internally by topic. Just change the view on my channel page to "By Playlist." - B

You Rock!!!!!!! Thanks Mr. Foltz!!!!
Thank you so much for breaking this down.

Not asking for a single video that is combined@@BrandonFoltz
Great Lecture, Thank you..
you didn't show how to figure out the "insane lottery" problem. I couldn't figure out where the 52 came from;)
@Lone Wolf Yea. I think he failed to mention that. I think there are 52 un-unique numbers maybe, to choose from.
You are a life saver
Please in the insane lottery example, I didn't understand what is the 52 number? Because it didn't mention in the example . Appreciated

About the lottery problem, do one use playing cards? 52, the number of cards in a deck?
Thank you so much for the morale booster! haha
+allen worthley You are welcome :) I know a lot of people struggle with this stuff. Hang in there!
52 is the number of possible number selections (1-52) you can choose from. For Lotto Max it's 49, etc... He is implying that you choose 6 numbers from 1-52.
so he assume everyone know, huh.
I agree with Jennifer on the 52 part. Where did this come from!? Is it because 52 is the highest number you may choose up to on the lottery? lol
In the last example, n=52 because there are 49 or 52 numbers in lotto (depending on the state) and you assumed or maybe 52 numbers are being used in your state, am I right?
For the INSANE lotto, where do you get the number 52 from?
+Cynthia Something I'm confused about this as well. Were you able to figure it out?
Thanks a Loooot Mr. Brandon :D
How often do we apply this in analytics ?
Hi! In probability problems, Bayesian situations, discrete probability distributions such as binomial and Poisson, etc. :)
thank you!!
concur.. on both.
I think lottery winner will be like (5,31,12,7,3,52) with 52 as maximum value.
I think you don't gamble because you are very well versed in statistics, hence you avoid it knowing the odds of any kind of gains is astronomically low hence a waste of time and money. Haha
