Linear vs Logarithmic Scale

So in this video, let's talk about the log scale graphs. So one thing to highlight in a log-log is, you can clearly see this from nonuniform tick marks. In a linear scale, this would be three, four, five, six, seven, eight. So you can see over here now, this is 10 to the power of three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Question is, why do we do it? Well, the problem is, if we have a thousand, and at the same graph we have a 1 million, if this was linear, this 1 million will be kind of like forever to the right. But in here, 10 to the 6 is million, right? So you can represent both of them. Y axis also a log scale over here. Okay, so this a log-log plot. If one of them was linear, such as Y axis or X, then this would be called semi-log plot. Here, this is 1,000, this is 2,000, 3,000, 4,000, so they're getting squeezed in, five, six, seven, eight, etc. Right, it gets to 10,000, then same thing, 20,000, 30,000, 40,000, so on and so forth.
