Math for Game Developers: Probability and Randomness
Do you see issues with this article? Let us know.
Math for Game Developers is exactly what it sounds like - a weekly instructional YouTube series wherein I show you how to use math to make your games. Every Thursday we'll learn how to implement one game design, starting from the underlying mathematical concept and ending with its C++ implementation. The videos will teach you everything you need to know, all you need is a basic understanding of algebra and trigonometry. If you want to follow along with the code sections, it will help to know a bit of programming already, but it's not necessary. You can download the source code that I'm using from GitHub, from the description of each video. If you have questions about the topics covered or requests for future topics, I would love to hear them! Leave a comment, or ask me on my Twitter, @VinoBS [playlist=PLW3Zl3wyJwWOkXKMWvuH5y_41_SjBNVAd]

My only thought during this video was: This is exactly how a dice looks like! :D
The opposite sites are always summing up to 7 so this is actually the only logical conclusion how a dice can look like...
I liked the voice but I always thought that dice in english is spelled dice and not dye.
It would have been a good idea to mention The Settlers Of Catan at the beginning and explain everything around it, but I got the message.
The following videos get more interesting.
All in all I am interested and like the format. :)

You could work on making your voice smoother and "cooler" rather than excited as you seem. Perhaps speak not as loudly? It's nice to have a soft voice for tutorials, that doesn't make you sit up when you hear it through your headphones.
Hey, I like Jorge's voice. 
His involvement with the topic makes it easier to pay attention.

Just feedback, not hating or anything.
