Intro to logarithms

[msbrandonking]

@XxFightinDirtyxX its compounded a certian amount of times. for example 5% of $10 is .50 but 5% of 10.50$ is .525 and so on.

[adammatsui]

Arithmetic Return (R)

 This is for one time period:

R = (Pt+1

- Pt + D) / Pt

R = Arithmetic Return

Pt+1 = Closing share price

Pt = Opening share price

D = Dividends

I just cannot get my head around this... Can anyone help me

[Catalystheory]

Hmm when i used this compound interest formula: P(1+r/100)^n i got 11.576(5 s.f) thats like so far away from the answer ... can anyone tell me why?

[irockyoursockes]

@blueroan4 that made me lmao

[KahunaSniper]

it's the natural log of the stock price divided by what?? What's S to the O!?!?

[mathgeekphysics]

This is very interesting. Log concept applied in the finance side.

[dograt9496]

LoL i came here for a school assignment

[blueroan4]

1:33, "Exponential Flunction" hahahaha

[bomber227]

@blueroan4 yeah i was laughing too

[Shiimochi]

@blueroan4

lol heard that 2, but this is helpful ^^

@blueroan4 that made me lmao

[lugiaspit]

This was a huge help thank you!

[hugewais]

wtf does e stand for

[NgAkT94]

@hugewais

e is an irrational number like pi. Its never ending. The first few digits of e is 2.718281828

[mathgeekphysics]

@hugewais "e" is named after a mathematician whose last name was "Euler".

[KahunaSniper]

@mathgeekphysics actually that is a misnomer. He happens to have used e, but I've read on a site that that was just coincidental - i guess he just liked the way it looked.

[Arjoonmoal]

hope that my teacher was like you

Help smart people!

If Log(420/440,2)*1200 = -80.4

what is Log(432/440,2)*1200 = ? It should be somewhere around 33

P.S. I've never seen a number expressed 440,2 (that's a comma)

thanks

[fh1mahfanzai]

[mtieliqalai]

[geo0119]

thnks helped alot in understanding it btr!!

[bongogurl]

I am a pre-psych major and your video was very helpful :) thanks for posting!

[rctriplefresh5]

the way you write it is confusing. i understand it better if its 2=log 10 100 rather than log 10 100 equals 2.

[daridaist]

are you suffering from dyslexia

[rctriplefresh5]

ni the other waay just makes a lot more sense.

[rctriplefresh5]

no i am not asshole. the other way just makes a little more sense.

[daridaist]

having dyslexia would not mean that you are an asshole

check who else have dyslexia from da vinci to edison, tom cruise, churchill

the way you want to see is really unusual just like you wrote

ni for in

[rctriplefresh5]

it seems you have dyslexia ;) you missed a very important letter that could change the meaning of my sentence. i said (no i am not asshole) i left out the letter A meaning i was reffering to you as the asshole not myself. but seriously man i type fast, i dont have dyslexia. ive seen other math videos where its written the other way. its not unusual its just the other way man.

[daridaist]

so you simpy dont know how to write read and dont have basic math knowledge.

asshole

[rctriplefresh5]

i see you deletedyour comment let me refresh everyones memory

also when someone asks you if you have dyslexia the answer can be no i dont have

you dont answer i am not:)...

^^^ you asked me if i am dyslexic retards and isaid no i am not. you didnt ask me if i had dyslexia. you are making yourself look like a fool each and every second ha.

your comment-

[daridaist]

you find this video confusing and you call me fool:)))

good luck in life:))

[blueroan4]

@rctriplefresh5 get a fucking life

[ScaryKidzScaringKidz]

you forgot your comma rctripefresh, so he thought u called urself an asshole. It shoulda been "no im not, asshole" instead of "no im not asshole."

[finessecrazy4]

fighting through youtube comments is like being in the special olympics, you may win, but your still a retard. lol you loser.

[babhero]

Thank you for posting!!

[drgonzito613]

[Sectorsophia]

[mrflash951]

im learning this in ALG 2 class uughh its hard!

[aNdr3W01]

thanks very much, with your help i have a better understand of logs..

i have a test this friday :P

[calexculux]

I even like the big writings which make it cooleer.

[bionicturtledotcom]

e^15% = 1.16, or in Excel same thing:

EXP(15%) = 1.16

[pnoyguitar]

I dont know how you got 1.162

[enogitna1]

Thanks a lot this is more of a help than my textbook. Math is the only subject that I need to visually see to undersand.

[flatbshfinest]

thank you so much. learning with visual aids are highly effective!

[assadb]

[EviscerVIII]

This ten minute video helped me understand logarithms more intuitively than hours and hours of class. Thank you very much!

[ranssff]

bionicturtledotcom,

Excellent video, very educational.

i am a sophmore currently enrolled in a math major --actuarial concentration.

i am very interested in learning the methods and techniques of risk management; i want to learn the math part of it.

will the actuarial concentration in a math major expose me to the math of risk and probabilities?

i would greatly appreciate it if you can comment on my question. thanks in advance.

alex

actuarial concentration

[Kamzui]

Damn you're good! My IB SL Maths teacher tried to teach us this all in 4 lessons and most people (including me) didn't understand it, and you explain it all in less than 10 minutes and I understand it perfectly. You're a hero!

[bionicturtledotcom]

amiregistered,

Thanks for your encouragement. I teach the entire FRM (risk) curriculum, so i definitely have advanced material to share. I just wanted to start with elementary concepts because my customers often request it...if you stay tuned , I promise over time i will get to advanced quant finance!

[Indrius]

Don't stop, your videos are greatly appreciated!

[amiregistered]

Thank for the videos. I'm really happy finding educational videos in youtube. You've shown some elementary things here, I'm looking forward for some more "professional" videos. Again thanks a lot!
