What is a Hilbert Space? | Quantum Mechanics

An informal, non-rigorous, but (hopefully) intuitive look at what a Hilbert space is. Essentially, it is a complete, normed, inner product space, as opposed to a Banach space, which is a complete, normed, linear (vector) space. What does all this mean? Watch the video to find out!
