This is seriously the first python tutorial that was useful, able to be changed to suit a genuine learning experience, and explained thoroughly. Excellent, thank you.

[MrJasontm]

Wow I'm new to Python and you are much better at explaining this than others I've seen. Thank you sir👍

[theresamautner]

Great video! Very clear! Thanks for your thorough explanation and use of precise mathematical language.

This is such a good tutorial. I decided to subscribe. Python is a wonderful language. Nonetheless, it is a language that I cannot love. But I will make a real effort to master it.. with your help.

Thank you for this tutorial! It was great to see python being used in a real-world scenario. Am I understanding correctly that your function (def) is never calling "frequency" because the rest of the code is using "compounding_frequency" (even though this doesn't seem to be impacting anything as far as functionality is concerned)? You can tell because the text for frequency is grayed out.

[aarohivijh]

Function only works because it has access to the global variable compounding_frequency. You should have compounding_frequency in the def.

I’m incredibly new to this. I can grasp all the concepts here pretty easily. The only thing I don’t know is what program you are using for this. I downloaded the python “terminal” I guess and nothing shows up colored like on this. Suggestions?

[crytex]

If you wanna target beginners you should explain how to setup python and the development environment (vscode). Just jumping into an editor and writing some code, no beginner knows how to get there

[KaileeShimada]

What code esitor are you using? It looks very helpful

[broken_diesel]

better than "hello world" :D

[TheLenze]

But doesn’t Chat gbt make python programming obsolete?

[SwimTeamEPTX]

I’m a bit behind hope I can master these techniques

[davepowell]

The relevance of python is too obscure . Serpents have no place in this industry

Please watch The Parrott sketch.Bicycle repair man .The Russian Execution and The Spanish requisition!

I don't understand why someone would use python when you could do that in Excel and the layout is much nicer with different color and fonts. You have an ugly black screen only a few people know how to use. what am I missing everyone says it's so great and I need to learn it.

[BM-jycb]

Am I the only person in the world that can't see what all the hype about python is about? What kind of modern language uses whitespace as part of the syntax. What next? Line numbers? And no declaration of variables? So if you'd mistyped one in the print statement, would it flag that or just give you a zero, or empty string depending on what it inferred you meant? With so many excellent languages out there I just don't get the need - or enthusiasm - for python.
