Not only is he teaching python, he is also demonstrating HOW to teach. Great job, bud. Thanks a lot!

No frills. No distracting music. All content that'll get you up and running with argparse in 4:30 seconds (still understandable if played at x2 speed).
Thumbs up!

Best video I've seen today, explains argparse in under 4 minutes! Thank you for the video!

I have spent a couple of hours reading the Python documentation and scouring Stackoverflow looking for a simple explanation of the process but they were all way to complicated. Yet this video made the part that I was interested in simply and clear.
Thank you.

Stupid enough, I made my own parsing module and used it in two of my projects, and then thought of searching for a more efficient way and stumbled upon this video. Thank you very much.

Unreal video mate straight to the point, clear and well explained

I never knew how it worked under the hood. Like does it internally parse the sys.argv... And I resorted to writing my own arg parsers out of laziness, because the documentation looked like -- -- -- for me, now I came across your video and tried it myself in a couple of variations I think I get it now and will start using it like everyone else. It makes sense. Thanks a lot.

Thank you very much. After 8 minutes I understand how and for what I should use argparse.

I'm new to python and encounter argparse on one of the programs I was reading. This video clearly explains the use of argparse in a nutshell.

[nadiiaradionenko]

Very helpful, well-structured, clear - great job! Thank you!

[quidquopro]

If every tutorial video were like this, I would be a very happy malchick!

[tilen]

Thank you for getting right to the point and being clear. Thank you for showing the optional arguments feature and explaining your nomenclature. Really good explanation

[Owlzon]

WoW!!!! OMG!!! Best I watched several videos about argparse but non of them could explain like you did. Thank you so

[gra]

Beautiful, saved me a lot of time and right to the point. Love it.

[jay_agara]

I'm five years late to the party but still!!! Thank you for breaking this down for us. Very clear explanation. I wonder why you stopped making videos, you're a great teacher...

[wlcrutch]

Thanks Johnny! This is the best reference I have found for getting the basics and overall gist of argparse module

[a_mortal]

Today when I stared reading a friend's code I was completely turned off coz I could not understand many of the components.
So I did some twitter scrolls and went back to sleep. An hour later I woke up and told myself let me first understand argparse.
...now I've learn argparse plus a personal philosophy of "Don't ever try to understand an entire project in one chunk, isolate and understand the challenging parts first" 😂
I'm still trying hard not to stop at first challenge🙂
Thanks a lot for the guide, it really helped 👍👍

[tonydavidson]

Excellent and easily the best explanation of argparse.

[anastasiakratschmer]

Thank you, Johnny! Such a nice, simple description. You helped me a lot :D

[alinasansevich]

So well explained! Thank you!
I've been trying to learn this library on my own but it always seemed a bit confusing, but not anymore, thanks to your tutorial I finally get the basics of it!
