    The content you made is really great but your speaking too fast and it sounds as if you are swallowing your words.....its a bit teasing as we have to pause and try to understand...may be you make the pronunciation more clearer. just my opinion, I dont know if others too felt it.

    It is interesting that even though you're using manim, your style is very unique. You're with a sans-serif font, a different color palette, and layout throughout the "slides" is also different. Ever since manim got released and documented, there has been no shortage of 3b1b-like content (which is cool), but all of them suffer from the same thing: they all look like a worse copy 3b1b video when it comes to aesthetics.

    That was a great video, I loved the content and the visuals and the style as well, and you explained the formulas amazingly well. It would've been great to see what the "infinitesimally small chance of the event not happening" would mean in the strong law, e.g. "It is technically possible, but infinitesimally probable, that your samples are not representative of the distribution. Kinda like flipping heads twice as often as tails, after a million coin flips with a true coin."
    Overall, great experience, looking forward to the next one.

    But why the limit goes to infinity and not to the total number of the population? Are we assuming the population is infinite? I would think that if the population has a finite size, the mean of the sample would get the true mean of the population as the sample size approaches the population size

    Does the limit being inside/outside of the probability make a difference?

    • @nstatum8290
      @nstatum8290  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It does, and it mostly comes down to how you define something as converging in probability versus almost surely converging. The interpretations for a limit of a probability and a probability of a limit are very subtlety different, but it is important in this case. This is a good thread that explains the difference: math.stackexchange.com/questions/2784153/limit-of-probability-and-probability-of-limit

    probability of not picking an integer in [0,100] wont exactly be 1 right - it will tend to 1
    so saying that probability of 1 means that theres an infinitesimal chance of it not happening is correct right?
    if a probability is *exactly* 1 then it will always happen
    if it tends to 1 then it might not happen
    is this correct?

    • @nstatum8290
      @nstatum8290  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      As far as I am aware, events like not picking an integer in this example would just be referred to as exactly having a probability of one because of the way infinitesimal values work. You don't generally say things will absolutely happen in higher-level statistics due to some concepts in measure theory that I frankly don't have enough background in yet.

    • @genericcandy
      @genericcandy 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      well the probability of not picking an integer in this scenario is a real number and not a sequence, so it doesn't really make sense to says that this number "tends to 1". it is either 1 or not. (and it is fairly easy to prove that it cannot be something other than 1).
      it cannot be "infinitesimally close to 1" either, since in this context, all numbers are real, and real numbers simply don't have a concept of infinitesimals. what we call "infinitesimals" in the context of the real numbers are simply variables that are part of a bigger expression that will make them approach 0.
      rigorously speaking, only a very few spaces have infinitesimals (for example the hyperreal numbers), but these are extremely niche topics and the term "infinitesimal" is often used to say "number really close to 0" (like 10^-1000 for instance)

    • @dekippiesip

      @@nstatum8290 I can chip in there. Measure theory is basically the backbone of probability, as well as geometry. In measure theory 'almost every' has a very precise meaning. It means that the set containing the events that negate your statement have measure zero.
      A good example is the one you gave. The subset of integers on [0,100] has measure 0, so that means 'almost every' number on that interval is not an integer. The same statement would be false for an interval like [0,10^-100]. It doesn't necessarily relate to cardinality either, as you have sets of measure 0 with cardinality equal to that of the reals(like cantors set).
      Technically you need to first define a measure and a set of sets that is 'measurable' used as the domain of the measure. But these are obvious given any particular distribution.
