Been teaching logs for about 14 years and this is the best video I’ve seen to help students understand their value. Thank you!

Logarithms are meaningless UNTIL you discover the slide rule. THEN it all makes sense and has a purpose.

Regarding 0:45, following John Napier’s invention of logarithm tables in 1614, William Oughtred in 1622 invented the slide rule which was a calculating instrument utilizing logarithms to conveniently perform multiplication and division of numbers.

this video is so underrated , this is one of the most informative videos about LOG EXPLANATION that I have seen on youtube this should be recommended to every student

I was so bored studying Logarithm and then felt exhorted to know the practical uses of it. Your depiction of the history behind it really made me enthusiastic. Thanks!

Just as a warning if you use this in class: when talking about water's pH: the audio says log -7 instead of -log 7 . It's great to check if students are understanding! Thank you for the video!!

Thank you for this, really helpful. One of the few resources that actually explain logarithms in a practical sense rather than just dumping a couple of mathematical properties.

Best explanation I've found on this subject online. Great work. Subscribed!

I loved the background music... So muchhhh soothing 🙂

It really was.

This reminds me, I don't remember exactly where I heard this, it was something on KZread, but young kids just starting math tend to also think logarithmically in terms of numbers. If you ask a kid what half of 16 is, they're far more likely to say 4 then they are 8, because logarithmically 4 is halfway between 1 and 16

I learned logarithms many years ago and felt I had to refresh my memory. This video was so good I'm going to recommend it to my friends.

This was well done. Thanks for the work you put into this

Thats a really good video! Ver ywell explained and feels intuative. Thankyou!

Fantastic work and fantastic way of explaining

“Very Small numbers are made easier to deal with.. Thanks to Logarithms” 👍👍 This video really logs a rhythm :)

Ideally if I were to compute these logarithms I would go for all the prime numbers first bc those numbers are not factorable thus, it makes calculation easier for large scale of numbers up to 100k to make myself log tables.

And then people say their is no creator. If we can build things with math and their is math in nature then surely their is a Developer who made all these things.

Denying the designer's existence is easier when you ignore all the obvious designs and constants surrounding us.

HNC in electrical and electronic engineering , which of course uses logs algebra with many brackets . This video is an absolute revelation . Thank you .

Amazing video. So, logarithms' real use to scale very large or very small numbers

whatever the Video add History (timeline & scientists) ,the sound edit and examples just simple and effective 🤗

Brilliant

Thanks for giving your time....

Thank you for your valuable information

This video is really succinct.

Slide rules were often affectionately called 'guessing sticks' by engineers and were still widely used until the early 1970s when the first (very expensive) electronic scientific calculators were produced by manufacturers such as Hewlett Packard.

Amazing

Great vid.

best explanation so far

Thanks for the info

Thank you it was a pleasure to whatch your vidéo

Fantastic

Thanks for the free education

It is just one of great presentation for log function. the best lesson to compare simple numbers for human presented by log.

According to your presentation, searching many websites and found finally myself the solution as example 10^x = 2 or 3/4 or some # w/o data on log tables. This piece is important to understand how the science community 16th or later centures had been resolved data on log tables. Trying exponential graph too but it is not close to get proper numbers. Again, thanks so much for it !

Sliderules maybe the only thing Amazon code carry?

AMAZING

wow I wish this was how my school teachers did to me for all subjects.

I am a dummy in maths but thanks to this video I could grasp the idea of logarithms

👍

Why would they make the Richter scale like that? Earthquakes are pretty linear

What does that mean, how are earthquakes 'linear'?

@aliasgharkhoyee9501 Say that you measure the displacement of a point on the ground sideways or Vertically. If the displacement is one, You give it a ranking of one, Even the displacement test is too. You give it a number of two, And so on. There is no reason for an earthquake Measured at 8 Being several times the orders of magnitude of an earthquake Deemed a seven.
