Thank you very much FCC for publishing my course. It's an honor. This project-based learning should help beginners to improve their portfolio. Happy to help!

[notknowthething]

Thanks for being a free version of Udemy

Literally I just wrote a python script to automate reading pdfs using just few lines of regex. Saved hours of copy-pasting work.

Typically I have a hard time comprehending Indian instructors, however this is probably one of the best instructional videos I have watched even if the instructor was a native english speaker. You do an incredible job explaining every element of what you are doing and even repeat yourself clearly to help the end user understand what is being accomplished. Excellent Instructor!

[neji-hyuga-]

Omg, this cant come at a better time than now. Thank you

[mounikakulkarni]

I can't begin to describe how amazing I found this video. Thank you so much.

[nikitokpo]

I don't know much English and sometimes I even have a hard time understanding a native speaker, but I still understood 90% of the things you said, don't worry about your accent, great course ^^

[the_positivity_pulse]

I swear the best channel in the entire youtube❤️❤️🙏

[brunogamboa]

This YouTube channel is amazing! Grateful for this quality of FREE online resources. 🙌

In the last project, the news summarizer (3:00:11), you can no longer use Gensim for summarization, as the line 'from import summarize' no longer works. the summarization package was removed from gensim after the 4.0 version, so you would have to downgrade to a 3.x version. I ran into a different error when trying to do that and ended up just skipping that proyect, but I hope the info helps someone

[MrKareem]

For those who got the error
"'charmap' codec can't decode byte 0x9d in position 1290: character maps to <undefined>"
just add encoding='utf8' inside the return open statement within convert_pdf function

[AlvaroVR]

The first project is outdate, with that code you get an error sending an email with gmail.

[Kodibot]

Holy this is absolute banger of a video, I also thought I wouldn't be able to understand the accent for the entire video but this is the best programming video i've ever watched explained all the functions and methods so well thanks so much

[theencryptedpartition]

You guys are the best🔥. Please stay so and don’t delete videos unless they get really old and you got another one but newer

[LoadsofLOL]

google no longer has 'less secure login' if you are going to use a gmail account for the Hacker News part of the tutorial. Create a App Password (16 charector long, set it and forget it) and use it as your gmail password instead of your regular password to bypass the autentication part.

[jasondoeshoops]

Yall are coming out with rapidfire Python content and I am HERE for it

[mehrozbaig]

You guys doing such great work.
May Allah (swt) bless you.!
Love from Pakistan.
