I'm 79 years old, been studying Python for about 6 months, and I got to tell you I get so damned exited with the stuff I learn from you - no other teacher, paid or free, has come close. I just hate to tear myself away from videos like this! I don't have a lot of money, but I'm gonna send you a few bucks - buy a toy for your beautiful dog. :)

Dude, underscores can be used to delim numbers!? Literally life-changing tip, thank you!

[BohdanKokovych]

Enjoy!

1) 0:34 - ternary operator ;
2) 2:13 - Underscores in Numeric Literals + about f-string;
3) 4:29 - context manager ;
4) 6:49 - enumerate function ;
5) 9:01 - zip function ;
6) 13:46 - unpacking tuples (use asterisk and underscore);
7) 19:11 - getting and setting attributes to object (setattr, getattr );
8) 26:24 - getpass instead input (read from keyboard) ;
9) 29:22 - run python with dash m in terminal (python -m ...);
10) 32:32 - built-in functions (help, dir etc)

My favourite Channel for learning python

[EVGrinds]

I've been coding in Python over a year now, and was expecting to only see one or two new things. BUT I LEARNED SO MUCH MORE !
Thank You!

[brainplot]

As a Python beginner - but not a beginner in programming - this video was great! Awesome explanation, thank you!

[petursteinn]

Your content is so unbelievably good! Thank you so much for all that you've taught me.
You speak so clearly, describe concepts so well, demonstrate with perfection, you're incredible!

[smashies]

Wow. Figured I'd watch a random python tips video instead of memes and found exactly what I needed for one of my projects. Thanks man! Awesome vid!

[blazecoolman]

Corey, just thanks, man. That is all I can say for the content that you make here. I have learned so much from you

[pawe]

His tutorials are exponentially much better than most of the Udemy & Coursera courses.
You're doing a Great job Corey you're having an impact ❤️ Keep it up.

[isidaruk]

The work you do is priceless. Thank you so much, Corey! You are really wonderful teacher, who keeps to inspire me and others to move toward being a better developers.

[archstampton]

Fantastic, 40 minutes of my life well spent.

[MegaTheDamir]

Was sitting yesterday, passing values to object attributes(13of them), and ended up looping around dict and doing this:
For item in dict:
obj.attribute=item[‘index1’]
obj.attribute2=item[‘index2’]

Wish I knew about setattr...

Thank you !!!Mr. Schafer

[sheeeeeeeeeeesh]

IDK how but I have been using python for about 2(ish?) years now and most of these are brand new to me and HOLY CRAP DO THEY CHANGE SO MUCH

[MyYouthUk]

This is the first time I've intentionally sat through the sponsor segment at the end of a video... not because I'm interested in Skillshare... just because you've more than earned that time from me.

[hungvunguyen]

As a new Python learner, I find your videos are the most interesting, clear and throughout! Glad that you still making python videos. Thank you!

[Bigbadwolf]

Thank you for this trick, this is just I was looking for, and thank you for screen size, because there are tons of videos, where I can't see nothing, but your is great, thank you my friend.

[zperk]

I've been coding with python for a while, I've messed around with neural networks, yet somehow I didn't know some of these amazing tips. Thanks!

[caio-jlqw]

Those tips on unpacking were mindblowing to me; i never knew we could use those syntaxes. Great video!
