While watching the videos on Coursera on Partial derivatives and gradients, I noticed that a few graphs don’t match their descriptions. For example, in the video Gradients, two graphs are shown in which one of the variables is supposedly kept constant. The graph labeled “Treat y as a constant” does not seem to have either x or y as a constant. Also, the graph labeled “Treat x as a constant” has y as a constant instead. Also, this same graph was labeled as “Treat y as a constant” in the Partial Derivatives Part 1 video.
Welcome to the forum.
Can you post some screen capture images that show these issues? Add your own markup if necessary.
If you’re referring to something in a video, include the video title and a time mark.
Thanks!
Hey,
I am so sorry for the late reply. Please see below the screenshot with the graph, name of the video, and timing.
Without being able to rotate those graphs, I don’t think it’s possible to say which axes the line segments are aligned to.
