OH AWESOME!!!! LOVE YOUR TUTORIALS! you taught me VBA on the job, and I remember thinking "gee, I wish he had python." something about the way you segment your videos and your teaching style just works SO MUCH BETTER for me than all these other courses.

You have absolutely no idea how I felt when I saw videos on python from Wise Owl. I learned so much from the VBA series with Andrew so I am sure that this series will be no less than the VBA video series. Thank you again for knowledge sharing

This video comes at a very convenient time. I've been thinking about learning Python for a while! Now I can start this journey by watching one of my favorite Youtube Channels.

I would love to see how to perform calculations and such. Also, seeing how we could use both Python and VBA in tandem would be interesting. I've heard you can run Python functions in Excel
