Shout out to every one learning programming during quarantine

This is my first video on python. I have ZERO experience and my field is in medical. I am looking for a career change and you made this video so easy for me to understand. I am close to my 40’s and I am that old school person that had a hard time turning on the monitor at her last job. Thank you for this video and for everything that you do to help others understand.

Coronavirus outbreak starts:

People: lets learn programming!

[elitehottie]

Thank goodness I came across your video! Not only do you explain this using basic vocabulary to prevent any confusion or having to back track, you also explain why and it’s so helpful. I feel like most of the videos on YouTube show you what to do but not why, what it does or how it’s going to be used when you get a career in the field. I’m hoping that you continue to make these videos that helps people learn code without feeling intimidated.

Thank you CS Dojo for taking the time and sharing your expertise...please continue. Always yearned to go this direction but thought I missed it because I never learnt it when I left school - thank you!!! You have the ability to explain it so clearly, the best I've ever seen on youtube.

me: print("hello world")
mom I am a programmer now!

The ironic part is that he “quit” working for google and yet he’s still getting paid by google XD

[trixidal]

Until now, you are the very best channel I use to learn how to program. I adore the fact that you explain everything deeply detailed and you take every point without taking for granted that someone knows already what you are talking about. Love it. <3 Thankyou,

[annieahmad]

I would recommend your videos to everyone. You have explained better than all those videos out there. Great work! Thank you so much for making it easier to learn.

This man has a folder name "Why I left Google" I love it

[christianwhite]

He explains it so simple that even a baby can understand it. I've been on other tutorials and this is the best one on YouTube.

[abeeralregany]

Thank you Cs Dojo, I have watched many lectures in YouTube and I always confuse and struggle to understand RL and how we select action and this is the best one and I understood every single part :) .

[aya_halim]

This is amazing. I went to a phyton class the other day, I couldn't understand any of what the instructor taught. This is a gem. Thank you CS Dojo

[MrCneo]

I like that you're not just saying, "do this just because I say so." You actually explain why you ask us to do each task.

The quickest way to swap in Python is by using Tuples. Try this:
a = 2
b = 4
a, b = b, a

print(a) will give you 4
print(b) will give you 2

How easy is that. No more temps!

[MisbahuAbdullahi]

Thanks so much, CS Dojo! You have made my first Python class easier and I hope to learn a lot from your channel

[AaliHamzaa]

Your teaching is absolutely amazing YK, the start that you gave through examples of variables is amazing unlike most other tutorials who start by explaining theories rather than showing how codes actually work. Loving it!
