    Alon, I found this really helpful, so thank you very much. I want to use MC to explore why it is said that calibration standards should be four times "as accurate" as what they are testing. I want to test all the way from 10:1 to 1:1 and see the results. In the traditional world, there is not nearly enough data to accomplish this task. I will post on LinkedIn, so lets become colleagues!

      hey Liby you might find this helpful, it is from Wharton ;) www.coursera.org/learn/wharton-introduction-spreadsheets-models/lecture/0OsMZ/4-1-monte-carlo-simulations

  • @stephensynchronicity5631

    Thanks for making this video! I've posted these on my computer as I learn how to write code in R. It will take some re-learning and practice, but I'm grateful to have found this video before some of the inefficiencies I had developed over the past 6 months of education became habits! The video definitely helped me to better understand how R is manipulating the data with respect to computer resources and how to code more efficiently! On a side note, I went to get the slide notes and your site just seems to just return a blank white page.

    Great work, I thought. You did what you set out to do: a non-technical explanation of MC and its uses and concerns. Much appreciated (a breath of fresh air, really, considering other materials out there that attempt to do this but miss mark). Thanks for putting this together.

    Thank you for the video. If we know the answer or we have the desired measure, then what is the point of doing Monte Carlo? Also is there any software that we can do this type of simulation without writing codes?

    • @honeyoak87
      @honeyoak87 Před 7 lety

      hey Jon, I understand that learning to code can be hard but it is the best way to run monte carlo simulations. You can try with MS Excel to sharpen your skills before using R or python.

    Thank you very much , I am studying a scientist Master , Working on waves , it was so interesting to understand Monte Carlo throw your video , I would like to ask you if you Have any Examples that would show us How we can read the results from the simulation , aheading to make a good report , and reasonable facts from it .. thanks again

    • @honeyoak87
      @honeyoak87 Před 8 lety

      Hey Hassan. Simulation results can be analyzed with Descriptive Statistics. The Khan Academy has a great intro to this topic: www.khanacademy.org/math/probability/descriptive-statistics

    @amrizalarif8239 Před 9 lety

    Hello, im sorry i cant get the difference in your 22:15 video presentation, what is the differences between what if scenario and finding reasonable scenario?

    • @honeyoak87
      @honeyoak87 Před 9 lety

      The "what if" scenario is one that did not occur but could have occurred. A "non reasonable" scenario is one that could never occur in the first place.

      bacteria multiplies fastest when you're sleeping. That's why there is morning breath. You don't want to swallow that. Everyone has a different take on it though.

    • @noway4517

      Why wouldn't I swallow bacteria, the stomach has acid to kill it off
