    The math of permutations and combinations are located in their respective videos (ruclips.net/video/6XWqDezwbaw/видео.html) and (ruclips.net/video/T1CjOkEb1ew/видео.html). This is just 1) a conceptual overview of the difference and 2) so learners know what the math actually means when they encounter it. Thanks! :)

    This was very helpful thank you! My teacher just wanted us to magically know the difference because it was "common sense". Thank you for taking the time and effort to create this, it is much appreciated.

    Brandon, you have a gift. I am very grateful that you are using it to explain statistics in a way that I can easily understand. You are an excellent instructor. My only negative, and it is very slight--use as many visual examples as you can to explain your concepts.

    Hello! Exact order (permutations) will always be in greater number if the numbers are the same. Take the numbers 1,2,3. If I choose all three at once, that is C(3,3) = 1. One group of 3. For permutations it will be P(3,3). In that case I have three choices for the first number, then two for the second number, then one choice for the last number; 3x2x1=6. [(1,2,3);(1,3,2);(2,1,3);(2,3,1);(3,1,2);(3,2,1)].

    Great video... honestly I think a big part of why this is so confusing is b/c the letters n and r are used. They stand for nothing that's intuitive. If it was T for total and S for sample at least that helps keep the brain on the right track as far as the context of what numbers are being used.

    My college days were in the early 90's. I use a variety of college level math everyday at work and play. This "basic" video was a very helpful review for me. It is very often a great idea to go back and refresh as if you have never seen something before. This video was perfect. The sedate, professional, style was very welcome, and I look forward to viewing more of these. I just wish I had RUclips back about 1990. :)

  • @BrandonFoltz
    @BrandonFoltz  11 лет назад +1

    For permutations the order does matter...by definition. Permutations are the number of unique arrangements. The exact order of "bca" like you wrote is just a subset of the 6 permutations. In your "bca" example you decided the order ahead of time. There is only one way to do that exact order; bca. So here is a bonus question: how many permutations have "c" as the middle letter? _ c _ ?

  • @MattMaresca
    @MattMaresca 6 лет назад

    In the stock example, I believe the permutations explanation is meant to be: 30 choices for the first month, 29 for the second, 28 for 3rd, 27 for 4th, 26 for 5th, and 25 for 6th. This gives 30*29*28*27*26*25 = 427,518,000 as shown.

    HI Samuel! Yes you have hit on one of my biggest gripes about RUclips. All of my videos are on playlists by topic and sequence. But you would never know it right? :( Right now the best way is to go to my channel homepage and find the playlists on the left side. There used to be a right-side fly-out menu that had the playlist but RUclips took it away. No idea why. Take care! - B

    Great video series on stats.
    A little hint for others, who haven't discovered the relationship between P(n,r) and C(n,1).
    It kan be written P(n,r) = r! x C(n,r) or C(n,r) = 1/r! x P(n,r). That is a linear relationship.

    Brandon, thank you for putting energy and time in this. You should have someone listen to the video and edit it. On many slides, it is way too long and too much talk instead of a couple of formulas and especially more examples. Edit and cut, as much as you can, and diversify examples etc. thanks

    combinations always confuse me because I think of "combination lock" -- where order DOES matter -- a lock with a combination of 7, 20, 35 is different from a lock with a combination of 20, 35, 7
    but no
    mathematically they are the SAME combination
    ARGH !!!

    Thank you for the prompt reply! I do agree that permutations should always be greater than the combination of the same argument. What I dont get is why do you call permutation as exact order. Coz order does not matter in permutation afaik. P(3,3) of {a,b,c} is 6 and comes with many different orders like abc, bca,cba etc etc. But if I say "I want the exact order bca", then I take C(3,3) which is 1 . Does this make sense? Thanks
