JanRabbit Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Nice equation. I think you mean q is 1-p, not p-1 (it's positive right?). If it's 1-p then the p*(1+q+...+q^n) thing simplifies to -q^(n+1) +1. so q is actually just the (n+1)th root of (1-disease rate). for n=3 and disease rate = .1099, p=2.87% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thai_tong Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 We did use q=1-pI think you are confusing that with f'(p) which did simplify to (p-1)3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanRabbit Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 the 1+q+q^2+q^3 part is (q^4-1)/(q-1). (it's a geometric series..) q-1=1-p-1= -p. so p(1+q+q^2+q^3) = p* (q^4-1)/-p = -q^4 + 1. which means (1-rate)^(1/4) = q. see? I don't think you need to take the derivative/use newton's method.

Thai_tong Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I still dont see where we used p-1 instead of 1-p. Or what is wrong with our method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaida23 Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 This blog is full of randomness and I approve. :thumbup: btw - your first post has to be the funniest I've ever seen in a blog. Especially the recent luvul ups pic. And I though my crappy comp gave bad graphics. :lol: Check out my blog to read the Adventures of a Big Damn (F2P) Hero. THE place for all free players to connect, hang out and talk about how awesome it is to be F2P. So, Kaida is the real version of every fictional science-badass? That explains a lot, actually...

JanRabbit Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I didn't understand the whole post. I was pointing out that it's actually simple to solve for those polynomials' roots and so you don't need to approximate them with newton's method. The first picture said "where q = p - 1", that is where i saw it. I don't think you used it, but it does matter which it is. If it's q=p-1 then the polynomial doesn't simplify nicely.

Vezon Dash Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I liked that pokemon. Because it was underloved and unique in some way that I forget. It is unique because it is mentally retarded. So retarded, that it is the only thing that can perfectly check Arceus in the ubers metagame. However, that thing certainly is not underloved because he makes it rain.
