This is mind blowing....two years of lectures not understanding this, and i watch a few videos on here, and I'm finally getting it

Thanks for the feedback much appreciated. Maybe you should send your professor a link to this video and the playlist on regression :). Make sure you tell your fellow students and like us on facebook (see link in the description of the video).

Good luck in your class and let me know if you need/want other videos. I am always looking for ideas.

I bought a linear regression book and I cannot tell you how much better this is for someone with a non-stat background. Thanks dude, for real.

Respected sir, I have started my course in Big Data and Business Analytics and have these concepts of least square and R squared. The way in which you explain the concepts along with the awesome animations... I consider myself very lucky to have stumbled upon your channel!! You are simply FANTASTIC!!! Probably the best videos on such important topics where they seem so simple... Thank you so much for such wonderful explanations sir :)
