You're great. I'm studying at one of the top universities worldwide and I got nothing close to this out of the lecturers. That's what happens, they are too snobby to teach properly.
Oh thank you Artian! Sorry your experiences are poor at your university. In defense of your lecturers, good teaching is not always valued over the research function and is rewarded accordingly. So they can be in a tough position. But anyway I am very glad you find the videos helpful and I look forward to making more for you! All the best, B.
Thank you sooooo much! I am taking online statistics and I am in week 4. This is the first week I had trouble understanding, and my book was no help. You are awesome! Please keep providing this service. My College Math professor was like you and that's how I got an A. She broke everything down and was an amazing professor. You're an amazing teacher also, so thank you again.
Thank you Brandon for such detailed explanations and taking time to explain every concept precisely. Please keep posting your videos. You are of lot of help.
Hello and thank you for the question! The easy truth is that the "12" is built in to the uniform distribution variance formula. It is a given. I'm sure I could reverse engineer the derivation somehow but for now I will enjoy the rare occasion in statistics when something us just given to us. :) All the best, B.
Your videos are extremely helpful. The pace in which you teach the subject matter is perfect. Thank you so much! You will be a reference I will continue to use.
Thank you for do this video and the others. You've managed to do in 30 minutes what my professor hasn't been able to achieve in weeks. Again, many, many thanks.
Its a good day when I can finally understand statistics!! I am so glad to have found your channel Brandon! Watching all your playlists and hoping to bring my grade back up.
My teacher spent half a term talking about this and I didn't get a thing from that class. I love your video so much and you've definitely saved my life!
For me, it is the best tutorial for statistics specially to those who are taking statistics for the first time, and for those students who have the understanding using geometric figure.
Brandon,thanks for doing this video. I was grinding out the calculations without any clarity and no enjoyment, but after watching your video on the uniform probability destination, I came away with,at least an inkling, for what a powerful conceptual tool, it could be. Now instead of arbitrary, the normalcdf function on my calculator actually seems pretty cool !
Hey just wanted to say good job and thank you for making this video. It was a lot of help and I really liked how you went through multiple questions to help clarify the material.
That was absolutely amazing. Didn't understand it at all with my instructor but now I get it!!! I subscribed and will be definitely be watching more. Thanks so much.
Thank you for this video, but more so for the encouragement. I am 4 classes away from completing my Masters and I get this curve ball for an applied stats class. Frustrated and discouraged is an understatement. I feel a bit relieved after these series of videos. I hope to continue to be able to apply your knowledge to the success of my course. Thanks again
Hi Rachel! Thank you so much for your nice comment. I am sure your instructor means well but having been there myself, I know we often get pulled in many directions at once. :) I am just trying to light the path, students like yourself actually have to do the walking. Keep learning! All the best, B.
Hi Brandon...This is me again. I have become a fan of yours Brandon...You are absolutely spot on with your visual explanations..God Bless You for taking effort and time in doing these videos..Thanking you wholeheartedly!!!
Thank you so much, Brandon! You literally saved my life! As I am studying for the CFA, watched other videos and tried to read the book and still made ZERO sense to me. After watching this lesson it clicked! Your motivational words to stay positive and keep our heads up sure helped me not to give up!
hello i am Joseph i am in Grade 9 and 15 years of age, Thank you bro really liked the video i really needed help in understanding this, this would also help me because i want to become and engineer , i also have problems in understanding the chemistry and statistics and keen to watch your other videos :)
Thank you for this video, the instructions in class where difficult to understand, however you seemed to explain uniform distribution in a way that I can understand. Thank you!!!
What's the idea of dividing by 12 for the variance of a uniform distribution? I understand the variance for a population is found by dividing by n number of data points (or n-1 for a sample), and since you can't meaningfully divide a continuous uniform distribution by infinite data points, you would take a continuous sum (or the integral) of the difference between a and b. But why 12 for a uniform distribution? Is that just how the integral simplifies down?
OK, Got it - there is a different equation for the variance for each different distribution. The one with the mysterious 12 in the denominator is specifically for the Uniform Prob. Dist. I just looked up the equation for variance for the normal distribution - now that's really mind blowing!
Great video and pep talk in the beginning, one question I have to ask. We are taking a proportion of the line segment to represent the area of the triangle. So we are saying that ratio of line 1 and line 2 is the same as the ratio of the area of rectangle A and rectangle B. Will be great if you can confirm. Thanks
Is there a recommended or suggested viewing sequence for videos? For example, which playlist should I watch first, and in what order should the individual videos be viewed? Thanks, Robb
Man, I wish I had more teachers like you in my educational career! You are the real deal, sir.
your opener really just made me cry, so thank u so much for putting it in. I really needed that :')

Thank you for your patience in teaching! Never understood this concept more clearly before. Finally understood now crystal clear.
The level of details is amazing
Excellent presentation there, Mr. Foltz! Very thorough with easy to follow visuals. Thanks for putting this up on RUclips.
My teacher spent half a term talking about this and I didn't get a thing from that class. I love your video so much and you've definitely saved my life!
Superb, now I understand between uniform or discrete and continuous probabilities.
You are great.
Thank you Brandon.
Thank you, Brandon! Applause!!!
I hope to find more of your videos during my studies!
This video was fantastic!! And you set yourself apart by adding the motivation :) Thank you.
For me, it is the best tutorial for statistics specially to those who are taking statistics for the first time, and for those students who have the understanding using geometric figure.
Another great video, love it! Everything is crystal clear!
great.... i wish i saw this since the beginning of the statistics course!!! THANK YOU

OMG I LOVE This guy!!! you just explained something that took me for ever to google. THANK YOU
Great Video!!!! Helped me understand so much better and I love how positive you are! I'll keep watching!
This was the best explanation as to why the probability of any one specific value in a continuous distribution is zero I have ever heard.
Hey just wanted to say good job and thank you for making this video. It was a lot of help and I really liked how you went through multiple questions to help clarify the material.
That was absolutely amazing. Didn't understand it at all with my instructor but now I get it!!! I subscribed and will be definitely be watching more. Thanks so much.
Learning about Continuous Distribution has never been such easy. Thank you so much. 😀
Thank you so much for all of your help. Your videos have helped me tremendously.

All videos are just awesome!!
(y)
you are great..!
Thank you for the great help:)
hello i am Joseph i am in Grade 9 and 15 years of age, Thank you bro really liked the video i really needed help in understanding this, this would also help me because i want to become and engineer , i also have problems in understanding the chemistry and statistics and keen to watch your other videos :)
you are a savior of my life....
Thanks for uploading this video really helpful
very helpful! thank you so much sir! :)
THANKS MAN U ARE AWSOME
Excellent thanks
just excellent!!!!!!!!
Really nice video! Helped me alot, thanks!
Drake Shred Thanks Drake! Glad to have helped. Hang in there. Best, B.

i have the same question
Thanks Konstantinos that was quite mind blowing! I too left off variance at ((x-mu)^2)/N or (n-1). Well whaddo ya know.
OK, Got it - there is a different equation for the variance for each different distribution. The one with the mysterious 12 in the denominator is specifically for the Uniform Prob. Dist. I just looked up the equation for variance for the normal distribution - now that's really mind blowing!
@Konstantinos Antoniou, Thanks a lot :)
Excelent as always...!! :)
awesome sir thank you very much it become very easy to understand the distribution taught by you
Thank you so much! :)
Amazing!!! Can you also explain other continuous probabilities and Generating Functions with Continuous Probabilities?
Thank you sir very very much
very helpful!
made easy to understand ........
Thanks a lot :)
please continue making such videos. I did loose you on some steps. you talked about x2-x1/b-a.
Your "don't freak out" comments are actually quite comforting lol
