An Introduction to the F Distribution

A brief introduction to the F distribution, an important continuous probability distribution that frequently arises in statistical inference. I discuss how the F distribution arises, its pdf, mean, median, and shape.

These videos have really helped me understand probability and statistics... Got more out of them than I did in the classroom.. Thank you so much

Thanks for the explanation, interesting to see that the F distribution is the ratio of variances and how the gamma function comes into play with the definition of the probability density function of F

THANK YOU SO MUCH for all of your videos!! you will be the reason I dont fail this class!

[mfanafuthifortunenene]

Thank you, I can understand every vedio you upload very clearly keep it up

[belgiemijntweedehuis]

Thanks for your video.
I saw that the F distribution is also widely used in ANOVA and Regression in which the F test is used to test for many things.
Could you make some videos about the application of F test in this field and also the video about MANOVA. I found it was very difficult to understand MANOVA and how to interpret the result.
Thank you so much and hope to see more video.

thanks for the playlist but #9 video is private/missing

[huizizhang]

you're a life savior, seriously!

[hanzelmejia]

Do you have discussion for Weibul and Erlang distribution?

[oAbraksas]

So for fit statistics, If i want to compare two models, its F= (x1^2)/v1 / (x2^2)/v2 ?

[sheenusharma]

These videos are very helpful. You have made it so easy for us to learn statistics. Truly appreciate....

[siqili]

this is fantastic !!! I will watch this all the time before my homework

[sbck.]

watching this in 2018 and probably someone else will in years to come. thanks!

[chevasflorian]

Thanks for your video. I have a question: Why F distribution is important for?

[AlienBlade]

Dude, I have watched a few of your videos and I have to say that you are a very good explainer (if that is even a word!) of things please keep it up! can i request videos on Moment Generating Functions and Probability Generating Functions if possible?

[phymath-jisanislam]

I have learnt many things from your channel....Thank you....

[pranavpatel]

nice job jb!!! I like your all videos its short and unstandable it up...

[syedahmedali]

Please make video on gamma and beta distribution...

[gauravgregrath]

how to calculate f distribution probability using tables? do you have a video for that

[k.happinesschapadiya]

Is it Snedecor's f distribution? Or fisher's?

Thank you for being way much more helpful than my teacherssss! There is a small error at 2:50. V should have a minus sign in the denominator - google. This explains why mu is smaller than 1, but I don't know why mu is negative.
