Unit 7 - Lists and Functions
==========================================
0:00 -- 11. List manipulation in functions
2:33 -- 12. Printing out a list item by item in a function
15:39 -- 13. Modifying each element in a list in a function
22:04 -- 14. Passing a range into a function
=============================================

This is part 15 of the Codecademy Python Walkthrough Tutorial. It covers topics like ranges, range arguments, start stop step, accessing through index, range to list, mutating list items, sum even numbers, sum odd numbers, backwards list ranges, and much more! We also step through each of the algorithms in much more detail!

======================= ABOUT PYTHON CODECADEMY SERIES =================

The target audience are beginners or developers looking to pick up Python. I also emphasize the importance of writing good code and I go through the first part really fast.

I will literally be going through every single thing and breaking it down for you so there is nothing for you that would be scary. You can watch me do it and you can simply follow along you will learn ALL the basics. I swear I wish something like this was out there when I started learning because everyone else explains things in such a complicated way and makes it so boring! I honestly think programming is based upon exploration and creativity rather than some mathematical/logical genius frame of mind! I spent a lot of hard work in making this so I hope you guys enjoy and learn something out of it while having fun! This is targeted towards beginners, for developers looking to learn python, or for individuals looking for a refresher on basics in computer programming!!

am lovin it dude, its just programming has now become a part of my life. I dont really have much time to learn it in my busy day but I some how manage it rather than seeing netflix at night

[davidrobertson]

Rafe you are a born teacher, even at 1.5 speed it's easy to understand!

[mercymuchai]

love this video, you could really teach pre school!! lol, very simplified

[michellebaden]

thanks for breaking these complex ideas down! really helps alot!

[rowshanjahan]

you are so helpful (I'm using ur vids when I'm stuck to get ahead of my friend XD)

[ramialz]

you the best bro, thanks a lot, I just want to know what platform we are using now ?I watched all videos until T15 :)

[intyinty]

So for example if i wanted to call part of the list instead of the whole thing this would be useful
example:

shipping_list = ["pie", "cake", "sugar", "apple", "orange", "kiwi", "milk"]

def fruit_list():
for i in range(3, 6):
print shopping_list[i]

print fruit list()

[aideoropeza]

For some reason on #14 the way you put does not want to work. It gives me an error

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "python", line 6, in <module>
TypeError: 'list' object is not callable

hey len can be used for giving total number of contacts in phone

[HelloAll]

does python 3.6 change the range?
I entered range(5) into the idle and it returned (5, 0)

[Aviiven]

I don't get any of this, since part 10 i'm not undertsanding shit, i guess i'll look for other videos or read a bit on it, i don't want to give up! Thank you for your videos though they helped em a lot!

Gary Vaynerchuk comment was hilarious bruh! lol

[rowshanjahan]

I cant relax (95% required by teacher before tomorrow because of reset ;(  )

Thanks for explaining.

That Codecademy lesson was a mess. They started easily, but then suddenly things gets confuse. They should have taught about range _before_ start using it in those loops. The explanations on this lesson was poorly written compared to previous lessons.
