Using Julia for undergraduate research; thank you so much for creating great videos and documentation to get people started!

Thank you, sir.
For creating this channel.
I hope that this course gets informational as we move ahead in time.

I am interested in contributing to the Julia language documentation. Can you please guide me about the procedure?

[Czeckie]

so what was the point of installing nteract when you use jupyter?

On your first slide, the word "Programers" should be "Programmers."

This is an introduction for non-programmers, not one for programmers Heck, the title didn't even spell programmers correctly.

Just as I thought I had found the perfect programming language, I saw the keyword "end". Terribly cluttered in the eyes of someone looking for something cleaner than python.

Too too talky. If it was a professor talking, they could have covered 3 times the ground in the same time. I really do appreciate the effort though. It would have been good to do a quick walk though expressions, variables, assignments, expressions, IF and loop structures, and probably basic procedure/function calls and rules on parameter passing. Instead of teensy expressions with too many words, have a bigger code section that shows several concepts at once and do a quick walk through.

Yeah, I wish there was a text book quality book on Julia 1.6 which is supposed, "SUPPOSED" to be the first stable release after which major language changes shouldn't happen (for a while). I sure hope it is since I would love to learn the language and especially all that crazy dot notation I have seen that uses the Basic library for type and speed optimization and macros - I saw some code that reminded me of the Python Boost library for C++ or the Spirit Framework code. What I saw reminded me of Forth or maybe APL. Very curious in Julia and want to leave Python behind - I need the speed.

I am already disappointed with Julia's usability vs Python for simple things like type casting or floor division. If this is already impractical for such simple things, I have little desire to continue learning.
