This is one of the coolest f**king channels ever. The asmr is relaxing, but the math is rock solid. Your passion is amazing. So cool dude. Keep up the good work. Sub'd.
This very trigger is what makes math so hard for me. My teacher begins explaining something to me, and due to the focused task, personal attention, soft speaking, whatever it is, I just get hit with ASMR and don't absorb a word xD
Love the voice and the concept for your videos. Two of the magical things in life: deriding the quadratic formula from the quadratic expression, and hearing ASMR tickle your brain from a sonorous, educated man.
+Pauly McReidy Thanks for the complement, Pauly. I love what I do and it's nice knowing that it's providing joy and sharing info. Can't ask for anything more really. Peace :)
I was hopeless at maths in my schooldays. I wish you had been my teacher, I would have got a better grade. You explain it clearly and in a way that highlights the elegance and beauty of mathematics. Makes it much more appealing.
Thanks for the complement, and I know how you feel. I only had one good math teacher in all the years of my schooling, and that's because she was a kind person, not because she was good at explaining math. The way I learned math was from books and what really got me into figuring out how beautiful math was was by trying to answer my students questions. Once I started to figure out the "why's" it just made everything amazing.
I had an idea to do something like this myself. I wanted to make a playlist of videos that would start with the most basic concepts of mathematics and slowly move towards complicated subjects. I'm currently a senior studying engineering and I've started to think a lot about how I was taught math. I always find learning is easiest for me in a relaxed setting, and this causes me a lot of struggles with my grades. I thought it would be a great idea to make a channel on RUclips where I can collect my thoughts and hopefully teach some people what I've learned and perhaps even learn some things for myself which I may have missed. Maybe someday I will follow through with it, but at least you're here making great videos. I wish my college professors understood your methods. Great work.
Thanks, Vejy.... as for making videos, you should for sure do. I love making these videos and I've learned more teaching math then studying math. I never really appreciated the idiom, You Never Really Learn Something Until You Teach It, but I do now. Highly recommend it.
Actually I'm not good at all with numbers but I love your math videos (as well as your comic readings) ... They're interesting and they relax me so much! Thank you
Thanks for the critique, brother. With me, sometimes words and phrases get into my head and end up dominating for a while and then slowly make their way out. Should have seen me during my "beautiful" period... lol
I was terrible at math in the Canadian school system. I wish I'd had a teacher like you in highschool, I'd have been able to understand these concepts. You're an awesome teacher.
Congrats on a new run of videos on maths, sir. Lemme just ty for your comic book reads and reviews you have recently wrappwd wholeheartedly. You got me back into comic shops and out of trouble lol. I watch each of your uploads regardless of content, but it was the Valiant videos that brought me here. Peace Cych :)
Thanks, brother, and it's my pleasure. Out of trouble is a good thing, especially if it's comics that gets you out. Valiants would just be the icing on the take :) Peace, as always, and I hope you have an amazing 2016.
You just made in relation all the maths i studied this semester and what im going to do next semester in microeconomics. I was kinda confused but it all make sense now. Great video as usual !
I've actually had a few people ask me for a Patreon page, which is very kind. After thinking about it for a while the odds are that I'll be setting one up in the next month or two, right after I get a handful of more videos done. Thanks for the love and support :)
Holy shit, I consider myself great at maths compared to that I'm a 9th grader. I do understand the first steps, but my brain starts to hurt from that point. I must tell this to my friend, since he's better at mathematics than I am. I probably discovered something, that he can't understand in this subject.
Hey chycho I'm a High school graduate and I took the most minimum math required to graduate and i some how managed to graduate with out learning how to solve for X could you make a video for it that would be awsome because it would help me when I get to the point where I can go to college. Thanks man.
+David Chambers I've actually done a whole series on the equal sign and how to solve equations. It's not ASMR Math, It's what I put out for my The language of Mathematics videos back in 2009. You can find the videos in the language of math series here, start with video number 64 and work your way up: ruclips.net/p/PLFA0678B6777BA250 You can also take a look at how I broke down the set with the following Table of Contents (Series IIIa): chycho.blogspot.ca/2010/01/language-of-mathematics-table-of.html#IIIa: Just keep in mind this was at the beginning stages of me shooting videos and editing so they are rough and some times the sound is not very good (sorry about that, I was learning as i was doing). The main ones you want to look at are videos #65, 67, 68, and 69, and if you like those then you can work your way up. Here are the direct links: video 65: ruclips.net/video/Tzc8tKoZKHw/видео.html video 67: ruclips.net/video/VhFarVZOt3Y/видео.html video 68: ruclips.net/video/JPzmi0k4o7s/видео.html video 69: ruclips.net/video/Ktn7ATEF7hY/видео.html Good luck and let me know if you have any questions.
currently watching this video hoping it will answer my question,when you 1/infinity your will be infinitely small (close to zero ?) ,but with 1/0 i am confused,infintley large and close to 1?
+paul sha 1/0 is technically undefined, I refer to it as the universe exploding. So as you divide by a smaller and smaller number the result is a bigger and bigger number. So if you think of infinity as the biggest number you can think of - which it really isn't since infinity is not a number, but lets assume that it is - then dividing by infinity gives you zero. I hope that didn't confuse matters. I've put out 4 videos on zero and infinity and plan on putting out a lot more since it's a beautiful topic that i love, but if you want to see what I've put out so far see, they should answer some of your questions: "The Language of Mathematics (5): Zero and Infinity, Introduction to Limits" ruclips.net/video/_ORHmRaPEzc/видео.html "My Two Infinities, Part 1: Goes on Forever until the End of Time, and the Universe Explodes (#154)" ruclips.net/video/gNFV6-VP7q8/видео.html "My Two Infinities, Part 2: Limits and Asymptotes, Visualizing Infinity on a Graph (#155)" ruclips.net/video/IE7WYuMwj04/видео.html "My Two Infinities, P3: Going Halfway, Travelling from A to B until Reaching the Planck Length (#156)" ruclips.net/video/XwKHn7Ixxug/видео.html
+chycho Yes I am confused. I would of thought the smaller the number you divide by the closer you would be to the original number,but because 0 is what it is,it can't be defined.Infinitley close to the original number?
+paul sha No, the way it works is is that if you divide by smaller numbers - anything between -1 and 1 - then the number becomes bigger. Example, if you divide 5 by 0.1 then it equals 50. Cool! :)
Chycho. Been watching you for years. Would you please give me one example in real life where I can see the power of zero. Like why are these formulas so important in life?
Sure, just think of it this way, when solving functions, functions that may represent any system in life, we can use this power to acquire answers to our questions. For example, questions such as: 1) When would a rocket hit a target. 2) For what price will I maximize my profit. See this video: ruclips.net/video/jer3S6I6QA4/видео.html 3) ...
+Dale King Thanks for the suggestion, I will definitely try it out, sure can fit a lot more on a whiteboard. On a side note, one of my best friends is a King, long live the Irish :)
Little petpeeve, at 21:30. That is a 5th power function yet you only included 4 powers. One possibility for your function should be (X+A)(X-A)(X+B)(X-B)X=F(X) but you excluded one power.
Could you explain how zero times zero equals zero? Because zero has no value, that means it's nothing. But if there's not "nothing", doesn't there mean there's SOMETHING? For nothingness to be absent, wouldn't SOMETHING have to take its place? I know I'm wrong, but you have a very good way of explaining things.
Hi, Greg. I'll give it a try: 1) not "nothing" would be a double negative, so it's not two zeros times each other but two negative numbers, making it a positive, not "something", i.e., the double negative analogy makes sense in relation to the sign of the number but not it's value. 2) I think of zero as having two meanings. First, having nothing of a certain unit, second, the absence of anything. The first one is easy, but the absence of anything is probably the hardest thing that we as humans could imagine, i.e., just trying clearing your mind, not thinking about anything - maybe after 30 years of meditation, no?
Hey, first of all I really, really enjoyed this video but I've got one question...Couldn't you just use the pq-Formula (at least that's what it's called in Germany) for the function at 15:40 (x^2+5x+6=0)... Since I'm from Germany I don't really know if other Countries are familiar with this method...
For sure, the Quadratic Formula, but this one is really simple and a lot faster just doing it mentally. Consider it an exercise. Worth doing since you learn more of the intricacies which you might need down the road. Remember, factoring this is probably just a small step for a larger problem, see for example: ruclips.net/video/jer3S6I6QA4/видео.html
chycho Thank you so much for your response! Well that makes sense... At school we didn't even really cover the way you were showing it! Keep up your good work, I love seeing someone being so engaged with his work!
+Thomas Cox I'm working towards a full series on probability, it'll have to be after I finish graphs and functions though, probably get full blown into it in 2017, fingers crossed. Until then, I have one strictly probability video out, and it's a fun one if you like dice : "The Beauty of Dice, Part 1: Probability Distribution for the Sum of Two 6-sided Die (Math Real Life)" ruclips.net/video/c3bcbSyx_H0/видео.html ...and I've already collected the data that we will be using in the backgammon playlist: ruclips.net/p/PL9sfzC9bUPxmnpQCIWhkInx4SIk1craYM
Any number times zero doesn't not equal zero! If that number is 1/0 then the answer is undefined. Eat shit math! jk, jk. Thanks for the power of zero :D
+chycho Wow Thank you for your comment! I never thought that I can get commet from you! I watched your link's video. Maybe, I should try to remove the word 'HATE' out of my head! And now, because of you, I can study math and english at the same time. Thank you again for your vid!😀
You're very welcome, and please let me know if you have any questions. As far as I see it, the more people love math the more beautiful the world will become so I will do my best to help that along. Peace :)
Can you make a video where you talk about where you are from. Like a bio or something. It would nice if you made it before my bday thanks in advance lol
+GAVIN GAVALLI Oh My! I really don't like to make this about me, but about the information that I'm sharing. I hope that's okay. I have throughout my videos shared bits and pieces of who I am and where I'm from, whatever that has been relevant to the video that I was putting together, but I've never done a video just about me... I'll keep it in mind though and maybe do one in the future.
+GAVIN GAVALLI No worries. Maybe someday when I feel like my math curriculum is complete. Until then though, I do have some info on my site on the About Page which might interest you: chycho.blogspot.ca/2010/07/welcome-to-chychoblogspotcom-restoring.html

OMG same here lol XD
+Daniel Dobbs I had a maths teacher and it was really difficult when she sat next to me to explain something ;p
Hahaha I'm so glad I'm not the only one who struggled with this xD
Getting that same feeling I used to get when watching Bob Ross. Thank you

My only very minor critique is grammatical.
"Basically" and "Right" sometimes come out too often.
Keep up the great work!.

Glad you liked and found the video useful, Ridita. Peace :)

Dude this is great. Even as a German you help me with m solving my problems I got with math and its also very relaxing. Thank you and keep it up :)
+Lap Pen You're very welcome... and that is the beauty of math, it is the only true international language.
That's right... thanks again your other videos are great to btw :)
+Lap Pen Thanks, sharing what I love and fun to make... a win-win :)

Great explanation of the power of zero. You make math much more fun than it ever was, when i was in school. (long ago)
I'm so glad I just stumbled upon your channel. You're doing gods work haha. Subscribed , man!
Hello, Regi, Welcome to my channel :)
learned more watching this 1 video than i ever did in high school
Holy shit, I consider myself great at maths compared to that I'm a 9th grader. I do understand the first steps, but my brain starts to hurt from that point. I must tell this to my friend, since he's better at mathematics than I am. I probably discovered something, that he can't understand in this subject.
Yes!!! I have been waiting for a new one :)
:)
great video
Hey man just wanted to let you know, this is absolutely stellar! Keep it up
Thanks, Moe, I plan on it. I have a lot of math videos lined up to do, just need about 48 hours in a day :)
These videos are so helpful, thank you for making them. 👍🏻✨👍🏻✨

Watching this with mathematics disorder feeling like a moron 😂😂
al fin!!!!!!!!! señor usted es un genio
Any number times zero doesn't not equal zero!
If that number is 1/0 then the answer is undefined.
Eat shit math! jk, jk. Thanks for the power of zero :D
I like learning about disasters and earth. so maybe can you doe that if not I don't mind I like your calm videos
If only you were my lisp teacher. Life could have been better. Ya I know that sounds rough; kids learning bf(bl(.... at such a young age.
I hate math. But I love your voice. What should I do?

Right!
Chycho you should do a video about a memory technique called " The Mind Palace " it's very interesting.
just looked it up, Method of loci, interesting. I'll put it on my possible video list, once I learn how to use it that is.
