Discrete and continuous random variables | Probability and Statistics | Khan Academy

Thank you once again sensei.

I asked Chat GPT to explain like im 5 years old

"Alright, imagine you have some marbles. Discrete variables are like counting how many marbles you have. You can have 1 marble, 2 marbles, 3 marbles, and so on. Each number is separate and you can't have half a marble or a quarter of a marble.

Now, think about a jar of water. Continuous variables are like measuring how much water is in the jar. You can have a little bit of water, a medium amount, or a lot, and you can also have in-between amounts like half-full or one-third full. There's no limit to how much water you can have, and it can be any amount, not just whole numbers.

So, discrete variables are like counting marbles, where you can only have whole numbers, and continuous variables are like measuring water, where you can have any amount, even parts of it."

Am I learning…and..laughing…?! AHAHA

ants born tomorrow is so funny

Thank you! I was about to drop this Business Analytics course at Udacity..

Glad to hear you are from New Orleans. Currently studying for my stats final at Tulane.

now way his hand writing with a mouse is better than my pen handwriting!

Bro grew up in New Orleans zoo.

Thanks for an awesome video

So discrete variables and countable (can form a bijection with natural numbers), continuous are uncountable.

You have explained a tricky topic in a very easy to understand way. Thank you.

thank you

Thank you for being a better teacher than my professor <3

These short and free videos help me more than my paid teacher in an hour

You grew up in a zoo?

Just looked it up, the teacher was pretty much on point, elephants range from about 2,000-7,000 kg.
(4,000-14,00 pounds)

I have a 50% probability to get this right on the test

I like the small snippets of commentary that are added into the lesson, like ants learning interstellar travel and how Usain Bolt is aging. It makes the video so much more fun to watch lol.

Really helpful vid! If only my stats teacher was as helpful as you.
