Degrees of Freedom

408 viewsMathematicsOther

I know degrees of freedom are defined as “a number of independent pieces of information used to calculate a statistic” but can someone put this in simpler terms?

What happens if the degrees of freedom go up or down? Is there a “good” or “bad” DoF?

In robotics it’s basically the number of axis. A robot arm that can move up/down and left/right has two degrees of freedom.
