Introduction to Programming - Basics

This video introduces the most basic programming concepts. If you have never written a single line of code or if you have tinkered with other peoples code without really understanding what you where doing, then this is the right video to get you started.

[@oscarmvl]

Thanks for this video. This is the only one I've found that actually provides an introduction to programming, all the other videos make assumptions about people understanding the concept of programming and dive right into code. This video should show up first when you search for introduction to programming.

[@ranvirghosh196]

thats true..

This was great. Thank you. All my life I wanted to do computer work and programming but when I was in school girls were not encouraged to go into Math, physics, etc. Even though I did go to nursing school and was a critical care nurse for 35 yrs and worked in transplant and every branch and neurosurgery. I longed for computers but didn't have the math background to even attempt it. Now, at my age, it terrifies me and boggles my mind but I still keep hoping I will find that basic program that will let me step in the door.

[@Jasmine_Tookes]

Cherie Erten . How is your journey? I went to nursing school as well and now learning to transition to computers.

[@davidfmorris507]

After days of searching and finding hundreds of videos that say "programming for beginners" without explaining the fundamentals .....this is truly a breath of fresh air. well done ..... signed absolute beginner.

[@TDChannel11]

You are most welcome. I'm glad you found this video valuable. Cheers!

Hey watch this surely for beginners...easiest explanation kzbin.info/www/bejne/n4ampKF3rrKMqpY

Einstein says "if you can't explain it simply you don't understand it well enough". You are great, and you understand what you are doing my friend.

[@fxjeane]

Thanks so much Mohammed. It means a lot.

[@Shoobedooby]

This is amazing. Truly better than the intro course I attended in college out of curiosity, everything was smooth and well explained. I tip my hat to you.

[@deepbeep1603]

You actually explained what everything meaned. Most beginner programming videos are not for total beginners because they expect you to have knowledge of the terms already. Which is really annoying. Thank you for this.

[@TDChannel11]

Its my pleasure, Sam

[@DjaabirR]

This is by far the most useful video on programming on youtube. Big thank you. Please do continue the series.

[@shermantearr9915]

Rudy. thank you. I am an engineer myself and do want to do more with what I do with electronics etc. I am so busy most time with my work that I start and always have to stop because of time etc. I understood everything that you said and explained like I just read the book. You are the first that I have came across that really started at the real basic of what I wanted to know. Thank you again.

[@wiseman8958]

Great Video!! Very helpful .. !! Thank You Sir. For that great work... 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐🥇🏅👍

[@marshallalexander5214]

really nice job on explaining the basic this was the first video that I watched on programing and i'm glad that it was one that was super easy to understand and pick up.

[@jb121993]

Excellent means of instruction! You've won my subscription bcuz I, like so many others, am a beginner and get agitated with folks trying to teach this stuff w/out taking into account the fact that folks like myself have thick skulls!

got sent here from school as a reference video for my intro to prog class - got a kick out of the "FOO- BAR" anyone with me ? =) Thanks for the Video!

[@Adrian-bz2lp]

This foo really said, "If I do a variable called, uh, foo" he knew what he was doing lmao

[@sweetthings11]

Hello there, you cannot imagine how grateful I am for these videos. of yours! It has always been hard for me to understand how programming works, I couldn't understand this in university nor from any other educational videos, and I felt like I got an enlightening while watching your video.I understand how it works now, wohooow, I feel a bit cleverer :D I also have a litl bit experience with Maya. I subscribed to your channel, I love the work you are doing, thank you so much! Greetings from Bulgaria :-)

[@phixphixation7261]

Instead of the term "constants" he should have used the term "literals". Constants are variables that do not changed after they have been defined for the first time. The variable with a name of PI is an example of a variable with a value that will never change. In mathematics pi never changes, but its easier to use the constant with a name of PI instead of having to type the value of pi over and over again. A naming convention of constants is you should always write them in all uppercase.

[@billprovince8759]

A couple points of healthy critique here: First, your basic data types should have included the Boolean type from the beginning. This would have made the introduction of the comparison operation more clear. Second, in your summary, you perform two operations that are potentially confusing: you introduce the '+=' operator and you introduce the idea that you can do an operation like 'foo = foo + bar'. These two ideas should have been introduced earlier in the video. Partly, this should be done to make it clear that the '=' operator is *not* an equality operation, but an assignment operation.

[@fxjeane]

Thanks everyone for the awesome feedback and encouragement. Im planing new videos and I hope to have them ready soon. Cheers!

[@aerialashlex5478]

I would first make a decision on which career path you are planning to take. Software development has many fields and time being limited, I would make sure to focus on your target career. There are tons of "boot-camps" that will get you code-ready in 3 or 4 months.

[@daowei4211]

Awesome. You are using python, can these codes be used on just the command line. Also, I want to be a front-end developer, along with html, css, javascript, I was told it was good to learn node.js. Should I also learn python?

Can a char be an integer? Or how to define this one from another

[@user-dq5xg2zk8j]

A char can be an integer but you cant do math with the integer unless you change it to data type integer

[@moredeposits6800]

Why did foo(5) / bar(10) = 0? Shouldnt it be 0.5? Are variables defaulted as integers in python? Thats the only answer i can think of. Im a total noob 😔

[@fxjeane]

If the two numbers being used in the mathematical operation are integers, then the result will also be an integer. At this point the standard float to integer conversion rules apply. To get the proper division you would have to do 5.0/10 or 5/10.0 or 5.0/10.0 - Cheers!

[@user-dq5xg2zk8j]

@@fxjeane yes it rounded to the nearest number without the decimal (nearest number being 0) converting it to floating point integer

Hello i hope to do some video art and I want to create my own visual story using the basic model of a GPS map , navigator , and put it in a Video.
