Thanks (as a born English speaker) now I know there are two different spellings for discreet, and I don't think any of my math teachers used it in thier lectures.
That's what I thought. I think it's more about the measurement. Liters are continuous, you can have any amount of liters. But if you would be measuring something like atoms of water, then you could have a finite table similar to the one in the video. Because atoms are not divisible, so you can't have 124.009 atoms or 0.2 atoms. Also the important part is that there are finite amount of them in the bucket. So it's not just any number, it's a number between 0 and how many is in the bucket.
@@NickWinters but in 'any amount of liters' is a (maybe large) finite, discrete number of molecules. when you split the volume again and again, the number decreases, but is still finite. Somewhen the last molecule is either in the left or in the right sample. maybe read about "homeopathic dilution"
@@DinHamburg liters are not molecules. There can be 0.00000-howevermanyzeroes-01 liters, but molecules are always integers. I’m just explaining my original comment all over again :(
@@NickWinters are we talking about liters as volume as a mathematical concept of 3 dimensional 'space'? then it can have any value expressible as positive real number. If we talk about 'liters' as a quantity of liquid, like water or wine, then it consists of a finite, discrete number of molecules. And then you have an effect called temperature - when you increase it, you get more liters from the same number of molecules - but that is another story
@@DinHamburg molecules are molecules and liters are liters. Liters are not counted by molecules, they are counted as volume. This is how they are meant to be used and I’m not sure where are you getting the second paragraph of your comment from.
You give us informations in a very simple way that even the little one can understand
Let's put it this way, he is simple the best maths teacher right now.

As a person who acquired English later than at birth, I now know this too
Eddie Woo doing what live TV used to do long time ago before the reality TV takeover
Let's talk about focus... :D
I'd appreciate if they fixed the camera focus, but I love these videos anyway
water is continous only at first look.

Those students heads make the camera lose focus constantly.... 😢
Where’s part 2 and 3
Will come
