In this video, I introduce the concept of commutators and eigenvalues/eigenvectors in Quantum Mechanics. After stating some properties (my apologies for inundating you with a bunch of statements), I then move on to discussing the 2nd Postulate of Quantum Mechanics.

This should all be a nice build-up to the video where I finally prove the Generalized Uncertainty Principle!
