My mind is just slowly being blown by your videos in this series. Thank you so much for taking the time to put these together!
There's a good chance I'll be watching most of them, if not all. You're a really great teacher.

Great tutorial! Thank you for the lessons!
I fiddled around, looked up some info and decided to write a code, where depending on the time right now, the output will change. :)

def greet(name, time):
print(f'Good {time} {name}, hope you are well')

import time # This imports the 'time' module
hours = time.strftime('%H') # We only need to know hours

name = input('Enter your name: ')

if int(hours) < 12: # If the hours right now are less than 12, then..
time = 'morning' # ..the 'time' variable will be 'morning'
elif int(hours) < 18: # If the hours are less than 18, then..
time = 'day' # .. it is 'day'
else: # Otherwise, it must be..
time = 'evening' # .. evening!

greet (name, time)

At 10:08 you didn't pass function as parameter, you just passed another (area) function's return value as parameter. This might not seem to be a big think, but they represents something different in JS as you know (where functions are first-class citizens). Though I don't know (yet) if that applies for Python too (that is whether functions are being the first-class citizens or not).
Besides that awesome tutorial as always, thanks.
