Some educational coding videos are hard to watch: 10 minutes feel like the longest, driest eternity. With your videos, 10 minutes pass so quickly, and I learn a lot! Thank you so so much for your content!

[@JustinSulak]

We live in an age where it doesn't matter if I don't understand a single word my professor is saying, because I can come to KZbin and learn ten times more! Thank you for this video series!

His ramble about "What does it mean to be a bubble?" makes more sense if you know he got a Bachelors in Philosophy, as well as Mathematics. Just a fun fact.

[@JakeWHamilton1]

I also have a degree in philosophy and have been naturally drawing the analogies between phil and coding as I learn. Have been trying to explain these connections to my brother (programmer, no phil) who just won't hear it...immediately sent tthis video his way. one day ill convince him he is actually a philosopher on the cutting edge of ontology, asking 'what does it MEAN to be a programmer!?'

Dan, I have been at pains with OOP in python & R for many years. Your video series here is honestly some of the most tangible and comprehensible learning material I've come across for this programming paradigm.

[@muhammedmustafa5725]

I feel so bad as I have just found your channel now, and I haven’t seen this video for 2 years. You are by far the best teacher I have seen

[@Alessandro-nq3tm]

You are the best teacher in the world!! :)

[@noxid86]

For real, youtube should pay this guy more

[@romanemul1]

a question that has been burnt into my mind after watching this video. "Hows to be a bubble ? " Im going to think about that for a very long time.

[@TheCodingTrain]

mission accomplished!

[@jelto-tankredbasel9060]

Now that I know how to be a bubble... I am afraid of bursting at any moment...gosh being a bubble is so difficult.🙈

[@greatsuccess4734]

Coding in Javascript for 2 years now, have watched tons of videos where has this guy been hiding all the time. damn amazing tutorial.

[@m.pashakhoshkebari2045]

The first time I watched this, I understood nothing and was super confused. The next day, I went back on it and decided that I was going to try my hardest to try to learn again. By the time it was finished, I had understood everything and realized that no KZbinr or teacher will ever be able to teach like this man can. You truly are the goat :)

[@BusyAsBee1738]

Same experience dude. I love coding but I've put it off for a few months because i need to write college essays (I REALLY REALLY hate them). But I'm rewatching a lot of this man's videos in an attempt to make bootleg versions of my fav 2d games

[@JatanPassi]

@@BusyAsBee1738 Hey there person so did you make that game yet or what?

[@BusyAsBee1738]

@@JatanPassi sort of. I made a pong game and then got held up w life. But I'm in college for cs now so I should be making bigger and better things

[@fotiem.constant4948]

This guy is a genius. It's been 3 years now and your video is still very relevant. Thanks for making my understanding of OOP easier sir.

[@DesignDensity]

So much energy, so much motivation, when I watch your videos I get 1000% more inspired and motivated to do things in writing codes than just watching... You are remarkable :)

[@heidik1757]

The reason I enjoy learning p5 is because it allows me to visually see JS in action and how all the different parts (loops, conditionals, etc.) translate visually. I think this will help me to apply JS to less visual applications when the time comes. I also think he's hilarious. Great teacher.

[@retrorek]

Please tell me you teach for a living, you've got the perfect spirit for it. This helped me so much trying to refresh my brain after my break from my curriculum. Thanks so much!

[@gabrielcoku5774]

You are fun and amazing. You realise later that you actually didn't struggle at all to understand what ever He was teaching about.

[@itsMapleLeaf]

i pretty much know most if not all of this stuff, but it's still fun to watch Dan talk about it :D

Very well done, good example of JS and OOP. "this. is the bane of your existence now", so true.

[@viveksakpal3231]

One of the best teaching skill i have ever seen...great job

[@jostermayer]

I watched hundreds of programming videos had six years of programming in school and your videos is the first thing where I really understand coding

[@Beyond.anime.23]

it is 2024 and still you are the teacher to learn from.

[@santiagoramirez5507]

The best coding teacher on KZbin ever!!! Regards from Chile!

[@sultanehind5884]

Its 2020 and I came here watching all the videos from the start of the series... sir but you said it might be outdated when I watch it... it kind of got me worried there. But still I am going to finish the course, hope it will help me grasp the ml5 playlist easily!! BTW sir you are the most amazing professor I ever saw in my life. God may bless you with long life!

[@RyanValizan]

Your statement at ~4:50 is just too true! There is no one single method to solving a problem in programming.

[@ahmedsellami1743]

I think You are the best teacher in programming. I didn't understand classes before but now thank You !!!

[@puneetjain5625]

Worked in oop for some time, still all this create a new meaning for me. I always learn coming back to you. You have changed my approach to programming.

[@Juliazevallos-vn5vw]

You explain things so easy. Other videos take you directly to the coding aspect and its hard to understand the why and how. Thank you for being so clear and detailed in your explanations.

[@MubarkAlKhatlan]

The reason why I changed my major from computer science to Mathematics back in 2009 is recursive function and classes with a very bad teacher. Watching your videos made it looks easy. You are a good teacher, Sir.

[@darkhorse621]

"What does it mean to be a human?" This statement was the aha moment for me in understanding Objects and Classes. Thank you so much !!!

Finally a programming tutorial, where the presenter has passion and makes you not fall asleep! thanks!

[@vasilispapasakellariou4074]

I have reached a point where i am coming in ur channel just to have fun and chill listening to u ! Duuuuude.

[@kamoroso94]

I think you did a great job at explaining the role of the `this` keyword in a class! I just wanted to respond to something you said around 12:38 about where you can define the class. You should define the class before you instantiate it. If you tried to create an instance of a class in the global scope above the class definition, it wouldn't work, so the class should be defined before the rest of your code runs, generally.

[@TheCodingTrain]

Thanks for this tip!

[@baxudak]

dude, even tho it's already 3 years old, i'm amazed by your explanation skills! thank you for helping me understand classes :D

[@hnariman_]

Tutorial is really fun to watch, especially when you're learning more complicated concepts of OOP. It will be pretty beneficial to have links on other tutorials, where let/var explained as example. Personally I get confused only at the stage where print() replaced console.log() and started watching from this particular tutorial I get confused, whether print() is custom function, node.js function or a new feature brought by ES6. But anyway, tutorial is fun and thanks for explanations!

[@gemma4784]

these videos are getting me through my 'programming for visual artists' class........ i love this man

[@1inda1ee]

I really love your videos because I'm currenty working as a web developer and everytime I get to use, I just didn't know how to do it properly. Anyhow, I totally understands and can do class function with confidence. Thank you ~

Very good video! Not many videos which explain things well to beginners. Most KZbin videos are very young people which you can tell doesn't have any teaching skills but know a bit of coding. You are a good teacher, are you still creating content? This video is 5 years old but still useful.

[@TheCodingTrain]

Yes! I'm a bit slow these days but lots of new videos and tutorials are planned!

[@DevlogBill]

@@TheCodingTrain It is understandable, I am pretty sure you are very busy with life. Excellent videos I must say, your teaching skills are exceptionally good. Hope you return and create more content with JavaScript and updates for example I would love to see you create a video on React hooks or even how to create classes for React, thank you once again.

I came up with idea that class is like a gene of the object. Maybe I am wrong because it does not have all the data - just "sockets" or plugs through transport that data for the unique object. Template probably would be the most appropriate synonym. But You are so awesome! I am in the process of intense learning - I was really frustrated with the objects, instances, methods, getters, and setters concept - I was so used to the functional way... You have the talent to make it understandable. Interesting that other lecturers also mentioned templates and blueprints, but You explained it so live - that it made so much more sense to me. I can guess that most tutorials/lectures ARE lacking proper visuals. If somebody who is reading this is thinking about making their own course or program - You can win the market with obvious, understandable graphics. Don't avoid that. You may think that You are explaining well, but boy You are wrong!!! 2% will understand... others will waste their time. I am a visual person. I am imagining everything and sketching every time to make the concept clear - I have a hard time understanding from jumping between files and hearing "we should do that...." - why??? Why do you think I remember why we should do that? Remind me of the sketch! On the model.
