OMG bro, I'm 'bout to cry 3 minutes in...I've been struggling with trying to understand the difference between parameters and arguments.. Shhphew!! Thanks, so much for knowledge sharing your skills!!

[@alvarocajina87]

Dude, that's exactly what I thought. I've been struggling for days!!!

[@RaynerDaCruz]

For the benefit of everyone struggling with understanding the basic difference between parameters and arguments, parameters are the comma separated placeholders (CSPHs) that appear in the function declaration, the first line of a function. Arguments are comma separated values, and they appear in the function call. The relationship between parameters and arguments is that arguments and mapped to parameters. So depending on " which side of the line you're on", the term used varies.

[@bryan0x05]

@@RaynerDaCruz this is not quite right, the function call and function declaration both have parameters, we call them formal parameters in the function declaration and actual parameters in the function call. Honestly this is just pedantic and not vital to understanding the code.

Mosh, you're God sent. Can't thank you enough. btw you didn't get time to do the last part where it return the parameter so i did it.

[@tiberiusG]

Thank you for holding my hand through this, I've been learning Python for a couple weeks now and I'm struggling with some basic concepts related to functions and statements, among other things. Before this video I probably would have had less than half the knowledge needed to complete the exercise, now I have enough to make a working FizzBuzz algorithm on my own in 10 minutes, albeit not as professional as your code. def fizz_buzz(input): if input % 15 == 0: return "fizzbuzz" elif input % 3 == 0: return "fizz" elif input % 5 == 0: return "buzz" else: return input print(fizz_buzz()) the solution for both 3 and 5 that you came up with wasn't obvious to me, and I was unfortunately trying to make the code too terse. I did figure that the only numbers divisible by both 3 and 5 are always divisible by 15, so I chose 15 lol.

[@keenanwekesa1723]

Learnt an invaluable lesson from the "Exercise" part of the tutorial: Always test & retest your code!

[@vitustillebeck4965]

I did the excersize. i am currently 13 and had a hard time learning to program. that is probably because i am quite dumb. but with your videos its been so much easier. thank you. i am planning to buy the course today.

Sir you are not quite dumb. I know I don't know you but what I do know is you are totally smarter than most 13 year old's. You are learning to program at 13, I'm 46 and just learning to code myself. So never say such things about yourself. You sound like an awesome, smart 13 yr old. God Bless.

at 29:41 why is the output FizzBuzz it must be FizzBuzz Fizz Buzz because 15 is divisble by both and also divisble by 3 and also divisble by 5

[@jmr]

His multiply function reminded me of a recent security vulnerability. Anything * 0 = 0. While it was fine his function didn't check for a 0 being passed that isn't always the case. In a real world scenario someone figured out there was no check for a public key being a 0. As a result the hacker could pass a zero and bypass security because multiplication is used to verify keys.

[@randycny]

I paused to do the fizz_buzz project. I did the calc old-school though. if x/3 == int(x/3): I have to remember the % option. I added a while loop at the end for testing so it would loop until I pressed 0. lol. Good exercise! I was talking to the screen when the if for 3 and 5 was at the end saying it will never make it. lol then of course you fixed it. I didn't like that you used (input) though in the example as that was confusing as there is an input() function and this was not related that. I was thinking I missed something. Love the videos.

Thanks for the lesson! I didn't know you could use AND to check multiple conditions for IF. I was able to accomplish this with a nested IF instead. Then I tried zero as an argument... Feature or Bug?
