I've been subscribed since watching the snake coding challenge back in 2016 riding home from school, and now I'm at a university, I see we're still forgetting the "this dots" 😅

[djtomoy]

Every time I watch the intro to one of these videos it feels like you have access to a different version of the internet than me, one filled with wonder, creativity and beauty. 😢

[justinfahland]

programming alongside you and trying to work out these challenges in python has reinvigorated my motivation for programming as a hobby again. Its really exciting recreating the things you make in your videos and I'm finally finding programming fun again, keep up the good work

[LeRouxBel]

Being a really long time follower of the channel, it amazes me to see how much work is going into all of the examples after the initial (rough) drawing of the concepts in the live challenge. I bet the community had a blast helping refactor this code. I wish you all the best

[motbus]

This still is the best channel about programming ever. You gotta love Dan ❤

[lbgstzockt]

This video is a great example for why single-letter variable names are a bad idea.

[jaydeep-p]

Hands down, you're the best coding channel!

[RicoGalassi]

This has got to be the coolest coding train videos yet!! Awesome Dan!

[Apchenail]

First video I look at since many years (of the "purple rain coding challenge generation"). The pacing of your video is much more dynamic now, I am sure the young brains are even more attracted by it.

[realcygnus]

Back on the scene with ordinary old school challenges ! 💪

[pompus]

I am currently 8 years in the past, learning about PVectors, and I clicked on your channel to see if you're still alive. Not disappointed and looking forward to catching up. Looks like you're not as nervous in front of a camera any more haha. Maturity'll do that to ya :D Anyway just wanted to say, heartfelt thank you SO MUCH for these videos and I love you to death

Whilst watching the coding train,
thought he was coding a game.
His maths was sound,
the topic profound.
He taught me something again.

[jasonoconner]

That historical artistic context at the start is gold. Great video!

[vavassor]

Years ago I tried to make a fluid sim for marbling. I had a flow sim and was trying to make things more incompressible by reducing diffusion using "back and forth error correction and compensation". Which helped the ink not mix together into grey/brown as quickly. But didn't have that thick ink look. Using vector shapes looks fantastic! And the raster method is cool too. Now I wanna revisit this idea

[HeadmostCantaloupe]

You gotta love the new editing style with distinctive intros and all of that fancy stuff

[tunaroll]

This is so genuis and showcases how much P5 can accomplish, combined w math!

[MauroGrizia]

I'm sometimes absolutely marveled at the amount of science that's being put into art to create this amazing patterns.
I just saw a minute of this video and I already made up my mind. I'm soooo following this tutorial.

[aniketmehendale]

i used to watch your channel when i was in college, i came across this video randomly. glad to see youre still at it, ah the nostalgia

[theminivann]

Oh snap this is my first coding train video that I'm catching on release day, HI DAN THANK YOU FOR BEING AWESOME

[tsarprince]

5:37 Omaigot those lovely animations, kudos to the editor 🫡, I've just fallen in love with the art of physics and maths. All thanks to you Dan 🙏🙏
