I'm a coder myself and this series is so fun to watch. Can't wait for the remaining episodes.

In next episode, our team will have to face the biggest enemy. The missing "}"

*_This Ted-Ed series could've been perfect for a potential Netflix show. It's astonishing and very vivid._*

[glassperegrine]

Ok, 2 things
1. How have I not commented on how amazing the animation is yet?! It’s amazing
2. I love the think like a coder theme anyway, but the piano version is... just really cool! (But that’s just my opinion)

"Hey mate, who's your dad?"

"That guy over there, you see him?"

*stops another guy*

"Hey mate, who's your dad?"

"I don't have a dad :("

"So you have chosen death"

As a coder this is amazing.
An amazing example of a Binary Tree. I can't wait for the next episode already.

Ted-Ed gonna teach us how to steal in the next episode, so take notes next time

[JaybeePenaflor]

Wow, good thing I saw this pop up in my recommendations. Love the story here, Ted-Ed.

[twitterusersarefreakingstu]

Let’s just hope we don’t have to wait another month for the next episode.

I am so glad the episode released a day before our “Computer Applications with Java” exam.

I love the fact that TED-Ed is pushing such amazing & easily comprehensible content to educate ppl on the basics of coding
In this world of tech, learning how to program and code is pretty much essential. Kudos to the wonderfully animated vid!

[sanketpatil]

The piano in the beginning was just cool...
And the theme music is just mind-blowing...
It just arouses your suspense and kinda detective attitude...

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

i like hedge

hedge looks like a turtle shell in mario

[salavora]

I am a coder myself and love to try my hand at the problems you present ^^"
Especially love the fact, that it brings me to think simpler!
I work with SAP-ABAP (archaic, I know, but I love it :-) ) and there you use a TON of tables.
So my first instinct was to store everything in a table and then... I stopped myself and started to ask "WHY?" I don't NEED to know every number of every furnace, only the one.
Who cares about the rest?
And suddenly my pseudocode shrunk by about 70% ^^
Looking forward to the next one!

Oh man! The team of ted-ed can actually make a great animated movie with their skills...👍👍
