PYTHON BASICS (What I Would Learn First)

Click the link above to code along with me in this video. No setup needed!

In this video I will be teaching you the basics of how to think like a programmer; specifically using the Python programming language.

Python Courses mentioned:

(Use Code FRIENDS10 for 10% off ZTM)

After this video, I go over

1. The basic building blocks of Python so that you can get started learning Python
2. The concepts that you will need to master in order to become a proficient Python programmer
3. A list of courses and resources at the end that I recommend so that you will know exactly where to go next

But before all of this, let’s briefly discuss why Python is such a great language to learn.

There are 4 main reasons why I’ve personally switched to using Python as the main programming language that I use the most.

1. The applications.
2. The syntax.
3. The libraries.
4. the demand.

What we will discuss in this video:

I’ll try to focus on the big picture and the basics so that you can start to get an understanding of how Python, and more generally, how a programming language works. I’ll focus on trying to explain this in a way that is as easy to understand as possible.

Harvard Uni has a great 10 week course on Python as well, known as CS50P - hosted by David Malan (everyone's favourite CS50 Lecturer). I'm currently mid-way through it and can definitely recommend it!

[MsAmate]

Very useful. Like other learners below, I m also starting a course, but you summarized it much better n simpler. Will check out yr other Python tutorials. Kiitos paljon from Sweden

[Daniel-bbpy]

Thank you so much for teaching us this steps. I do not have any knowledge on Python. I really appreciate your time and effort to explain it in the most simple way. You got a new subscriber!

I started learning to code to leave my profession of architecture for 3 years due to the intense working conditions. I had an interest in coding since I was a kid, I even made my own website at 14 years old, but unfortunately, life conditions pushed me to a different field. Thanks to you, I gathered my courage and I learn by doing intensive research by saying it's not too late for anything. Thank you very much for your motivation and valuable content 🙏

This is my first lesson and near the end of the video, I used print('Your score is', (score)) and it worked!

[rodleger]

Just starting to learn Python. Like your video. Need to check out your other videos. I greatly appreciate real world examples of coding to show beginners along with the explanations. It helps us beginners "think" and opens up the the doors to what is possible.

[mahoonatech]

Unbelievable video. I am learning python at the moment and i have come across these terms while learning, but this is a great way of putting them all together in one understandable, easy to digest video. People really need to start to take jargon out of things for beginners. Well done man.

[blazeken]

Thank you for posting this. You make me want to learn coding.
I always thought It’d be too late for someone like me to start. But you changed that.

[amoralmemes]

Everything made as much sense to me as possible after your video, thank you

[benkehargitai]

Pedagogically the most valuable video in this topic that I've found so far! :)

[marcospalacios]

very useful/helpful yet practical thank you...i appreciate your effort. . .🙏

[torilewis]

Thank you so. much for your beautiful energy and content. I am an enthusiast learner and feel like the futur lays in computer science, decided to start my coding journey and finding your videos helps A LOT!

[iconiummusic]

I just finished all your videos in the space of 5 hours and I must say they are amazingly amazing. Thanks a lot.

[mitochondriaof]

Thank you for this video. It's very helpful. you should make a full video tutorials in python for beginners. I sub!

[felixc.programs]

Very informative, thanks for posting! You motivated me to start my own Data Science/Engineering Youtube channel myself. Thank you!

[dp-r.est.]

Great video, thanks. This is literally my python class in 20 minutes lol

[EQUINOX_Design]

Thank you soomuch more pls you realy made it easy for me to understand after 4 years of being a computer eng here in ph

[baztheman]

Great tips and videos. I am a python beginner. A build engineer who desperately need python to pass DevOps interviews. Would you please make videos like this but progressively go deeper so I can learn python and also for the purpose of passing python coding interviews? I found this video very easy to digest - small videos concentrate on a particular python feature or common usages. Thank you.

I have been following your journey since you made the video about OSSU. Anyways, Im curious about how many programming language have you learn ? Do you recommend learning two language at once or only learn another language when you have done learning the current one?

[calecoin]

I believe you're using the Keychron K8 and not the K6 that you have linked? I started using your notion open source computer science degree template and loving it! It definitely helps stay motivated having a detailed curriculum to go off of. And it's easy just adding notes to your notion template to stay on track and review what I've learned. Much appreciated!
