If you are studying in school then you will learn about them in senior high school, 12th Grade. And trust me it's not something you will want to learn interestingly. I'm still in 11th grade but I have done the basic calculus and it's hell of trouble to use in actual calculations.
@zebulonpike90244 жыл бұрын
Master Dementer High schools don’t necessarily teach calculus in 12th grade, it depends on the district almost entirely. I took calculus in the 11th grade, but I knew people who only ever took precalculus in high school(it was taught as trig and a bit of extra algebra). Calculus is also incredibly useful once you get past the basics. Especially in physics (which is what I’m doing rn), it’s an incredibly powerful tool to describe how things behave, allowing conclusions that would be totally impossible or incredibly difficult to demonstrate through algebra or geometry

I jumped into the "advanced topics in math" class at my college a couple years ago...it was about discrete dynamical systems; a topic that the professor's PhD thesis was centered around. Without a single doubt, despite struggling with the class because I had to get an exception for my lack of a proofs class before taking the highest-numbered math class available, it was my favorite math class *ever.* By FAR. It lent to me an understanding of not just how calculus works, but also how it was derived, and how it connects to physics (my major). It is rarely mentioned (probably a product of how it is not often offered to undergrads) but it's just...cool as hell. Thanks for doing a video on it :)

Well the reason they don't teach the derivative like that is because for people who struggle with math more than others (which is totally okay!) or are new to the subject, a graph is the simplest way to demonstrate what the derivative does. Now sure, this is still worth knowing as it broadens your understanding of the derivative and if one way of understanding the concept is a little muddy, perhaps this will be an easier way for a student. I say this not to discredit the video, I love this channel and this video! But I conjecture that this might be a bit tricky for a new student to the subject to grasp in comparison with the usual way involving plotting some nicely function/polynomial. I just finished my math degree (still have a year left though, taking some grad classes in Analysis and Topology and a research seminar thing), and one of the sequences I did this year was one in Real Analysis (Intro to Analysis followed up with a course in Metric Spaces). It was cool seeing the concepts I learned in those courses come up in the video and be so well illustrated. Another course I took this past school year (actually finished two weeks ago on the 9th) was a course in Nonlinear Dynamics and Chaos Theory. It was cool seeing that little iterated map thing at the end there and discussion of fixed points :) I'm also pretty sure I saw that example (or one like it) one day in my Metric Spaces class when we were going over some fixed point theorems, but nonetheless it's cool stuff and I loved this video, thanks for making it!!!

This is a great concept for understanding propagation of uncertainty. If a variable x in a function has an uncertainty, you can find the uncertainty in the output of the function by taking the derivative. With this visualization, that uncertainty is some small region around x. The derivative tells you how that uncertainty is stretched or squished as it goes through the function, giving you the new uncertainty of the output. Typically I'd visualize this graphically by taking the region around x, mapping it onto the curve, and then reflecting it over to the y axis, using the y component of the slope to determine the width of the new error bars. I think they both work equally well, but it's nice to have multiple visualization tools to pick from.

I find it really interesting how two at first seemingly different questions can end up having a strong link - just the other day I was looking at the logistic map and its attractors, and was trying to find solutions at various inputs, and figure out which of those inputs were stable and which were unstable. I wish I'd seen this video before then - I was hopping between using calculus and using the graphical intuition, without a whole lot of connection between them, which was kind of frustrating. (I wish I had enough programming knowledge to try and map the logistic map in the way you did for the 1+1/x function here, so I could see it visually.) Actually, I'd really like to see some 3b1b videos on Chaos Theory, because its the kind of combination of visually accessible images and deep math that would work well in a 3b1b video.
@alexpotts65206 жыл бұрын
The logistic map isn't quite the same as 3b1b's graph. In this video, 3b1b just had an ordinary graph of a regular function and was using the graph to find fixed points. The logistic map is really a graph of different functions, a function of functions if you like - the x-co-ordinate is the parameter λ in the iteration z -> λz(1-z), and the y-co-ordinate shows the fixed points of that function for different values of the parameter. So it would be a bit trickier.
@conoroneill80676 жыл бұрын
Yeah, that's true. Still, for any given value λ in the 'stable' part of the logistic map, the principles that this video talks about apply - in the regions where there are oscillations of 2,4,8,... period cycles, then there also exist unstable 'repelled' cycles, or even a single point which will repeat, but points near that value will diverge away from it.
@firefly6186 жыл бұрын
Ohh, that would be beautiful indeed if explained with 3B1B's magic. I remember trying my hand at coding various visualizations of the logistic map and the bifurcation diagram, ages ago, with early programming languages. (We didn't have Python or Mathematica back then, it was Turbo Pascal in MS DOS and a 640×400 monochromatic screen!)
@Sonnentau16 жыл бұрын
This looks like a problem you can solve with moddeling it like a closed loop system. You will find all stable and unstable points by finding the poles. For continous systems: If there realpart of the pole is smaller than zero it is stable. For discrete systems: If the realpart of the pole is within the unit circle it is stable

Quietsamurai98 It nonetheless uses rhetorical tricks to push you into a certain emotional state ("*They* won't teach you but *I* will!" - Strong "us-vs-them" mentality) and conveys a certain urgency, as if whatever this video has to say could help you improve drastically (so you should watch it, asap!) _against the wish or design of whoever is in charge of "them"._ Phrasing the title this way rules out the possibility that other people try their best to instil the basics of university-level maths into students with wildly different starting knowledge. People who simply never considered teaching derivatives this way because they personally do not find it helpful or easier to imagine than the standard approach. Instead, the title implicitly conveys an intent on behalf of the unnamed others, "them", to withhold this information from you. This, in turn, gives an impression of deceitfulness, as there is really no good reason to withhold said info. That said, the phrase IS a meme at this point, and I have no doubt 3B1B meant it only as a joke. I don't have any problem with him using this video title, in fact. But even if only meant as a joke, it still remains clickbait, even if cheesy one delivered with a sly grin instead of a straight face.
@me4444444444446 жыл бұрын
I disagree, I don't think 3blue1brown is implying that your school teachers or the education system as whole purposely wants to keep you bad at math. I see it as either a legitimate critic of how math is taught in most schools, or a reassurance to those who took a lot of mathematics in school but still don't grasp the "geometric intuition" behind it. You're right that its pretty clickbait-y, but at what point does clickbait simply become copy?

@franzluggin3986 жыл бұрын
As said, I agree with your sentiment that 3B1B probably doesn't believe there is any evil intent here. I don't want to convince you that he did any wrong in labelling his video as he did. My point is that even though he used a phrase that is likely more often laughed at than taken at face value within our social circles, it is still a rhetorical tool most often employed within the context of us-vs-them polemics, and that usage is going to colour the viewers' impression of this video when deciding whether to watch it or not. Consider it from this perspective: A video's title is basically a short advertisement to watch it. And I would say that any product that doesn't advertise itself by showing its own good sides, but instead everyone else's bad ones, is being needlessly aggressive in its advertisement. And this title does not even allude to anything at all in the video except the fact that you won't get that content anywhere else, i.e. _everyone else is bad_ and not _I am good,_ as well as the general topic (calculus). In this case, it doesn't matter. I know 3B1B's videos, I would watch just about any video he uploads and it is very possible that the title was just a joking exaggeration. And I'm sure other viewers like this channel just as much and would think similarly. But it's still clickbait for me because if some other channel with more questionable video quality and intentions did it, it would feel like an annoying practice to grab attention.

In no way is this meant to hurt your feelings whatsoever. I wouldn't have written it in a verbose and linguistically magnanimous manner of such simplistic vocabulary, yet elegantly oriented the verbiage for a slightly feigned complexity, and almost faux reflection and glittering glimmer of a spitshined surface. anywhere, I digress, and I would have benefited quite a piece, most assuredly, from some of the same teaching techniques and warm intonation of this style of technique and emotionally empathetic attitude integration.

Here he is just relating two functions via parallel axes (rather than perpendicular, as in Cartesian grid). One function is just the input coordinate, c(x) = x, and the other function is just the derivative of some function under question (say, f(x) = ), which in this case would be f'(x) = d / dx. The transformation visualization in this case just goes between c(x) to f'(x). For integration, you could just keep the first function c(x) and relate it to F(x) = Integral( f(x) ) = Integral( ). To deal with the constant of integration (typically called C), you could either set it to C = 0, or change it and play with it by shifting the bottom axis left or right (as the above video did when showing 1/x vs. (1/x + 1) ). Really, this transformation visualization is just another way of showing/visualizing the relation between two functions (with the first function typically just 'x' without any modification). So, it can be used to show any transformation from one function to another, including x to the integral of f(x).
@iabervon6 жыл бұрын
One property of the derivative that makes this video nice is that it doesn't matter where on the number line the region ends up. When we zoom in on the output, we don't have to know where on the number line the box is. The integral doesn't have this property, so you can't "think locally", at least at that part of the animation, and get the right answer. You also can't think locally at the input side, but that's a bit less obvious.
@christophercampbell69066 жыл бұрын
Yeah! I think of integration as a transformation into R^1, at least for definite integrals. This helps in analysis when you are considering the ordering properties of integrals. For indefinite integrals, just fix that idea of transformation to R^1, but for some new function that gives the values of this transformation.
@acykablyatley6 жыл бұрын
if I understand this method correctly, as the functional inverse of a derivative; choosing an even distribution of points on the output line and mapping them back to the inputs, plus some constant. in the video it would look like points on the bottom line rising back to the top, but their concentrations would follow the same rules as the graphs; zeroes in f are the maxima and minima of the intergral of f, the most dense intervals, maxima and minima of f are the inflection points of the integral of f, the most sparse intervals.

Let F_n be the nth Fibonacci number, with F_0 = 0, F_1 = 1. Then the rational number -F_n / F_(n+1) "breaks" (by division by zero) the dynamical system f(x) = 1 + 1/x on the (n+1)st iteration. Proof. Note -0/1 = 0, -1/1 = -1. Suppose -F_(n-1)/F_n breaks the dynamical system after n iterations. Then 1 + 1/(-F_n/F_(n+1)) = 1 - F_(n+1)/F_n = (F_n - F_(n+1))/F_n = -F_(n-1)/F_n, so by the principal of mathematical induction, the proposition holds.

Adnan Hafeez One example can be reactor temperature. In a lot of chemical reactors there can be multiple temperatures with steady state operation. Some of those points however are unstable while other ones are stable, each temperature giving you different chemical conversions. So trying to control the temperature at an unstable point is very hard due to a slight deviation resulting in a new stable temperature that could be drastically lower or higher than what you initially had.

@PersonaRandomNumbers6 жыл бұрын
Oh, definitely. Immediately as I saw the part at 8:15, I started thinking about control theory and stable vs. unstable equilibria. A pretty standard example of control theory is a pendulum. A pendulum has two independent dimensions -- angle and momentum. There are two equilibrium points -- resting at the bottom of its swing, and standing perfectly straight upright. A small pertubation near the bottom will leave the pendulum still resting at the bottom -- but a tiny nudge at the top, even from something as small as thermal noise, will quickly send it crashing down. The difference is huge, and has to be appreciated for control systems, unless you want it to spiral out of control. Adding a controller changes the system, and can add or remove equilibria, which may or may not be stable. The general goal is to remove all instability, but without slowing down the response significantly. Here's a video showing a controller applied to an inverted pendulum to make the system stable: watch?v=855O9x0Pgf0 And a wikibooks textbook with a good introduction to the topic: en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Control_Systems
