Python Hello World Python is a clean and powerful programming language. You can use it to build websites, analyze data, write utilities, and create many other kinds of software. It's become a tradition that when you learn a new programming language, you start with a program that prints the message "Hello world."

Python Strings In this Python tutorial, we introduce all the different ways you can create strings. While most languages gives you a single way to construct a string, Python gives you three ways. This makes it easy to make any kind of string without having to escape characters. Subscribe today! http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=Socratic...

Numbers in Version 2 Today we talk about the different types of numbers available in Python version 2. There are four types of numbers in Python V2: ints, longs, floats and complex numbers. Things changed in Python version 3, so we made a separate version for Python V3: http://youtu.be/_87ASgggEg0 We show you how to create each type, limits on ints, and how to determine the type of a number.

Numbers in Version 3 Today we talk about the different types of numbers available in Python version 3. There are three types of numbers in Python V3: ints, floats and complex numbers. This is simpler than in Python V2 which had four types of numbers: ints, longs, floats and complex numbers.

Arithmetic in Python V2 Today we talk about the rules of arithmetic in Python Version 2. The key detail is when combining two numbers, Python will widen numbers to make sure they are all of the same type. (In Python v2, there are four numeric types: ints, longs, floats and complex numbers.) Also, when you divide two whole numbers, Python will return the quotient, not the mathematical value.

Arithmetic in Python V3 Today we talk about the rules of arithmetic in Python Version 3. The key detail is when combining two numbers, Python will widen numbers to make sure they are all of the same type. (In Python v3, there are three numeric types: ints, floats and complex numbers.) And division has changed from version 2. Now, division always returns the correct math value as a float. It no longer returns the quotient when you divide two whole numbers.

Python: If, Then, Else When coding in Python, you will frequently encounter a fork in the road. Depending on the values of certain data, you may want to go in one direction or the other. There may even be more than two directions for you to choose. The if-then-else statements help you navigate these situations.

Recursion, the Fibonacci Sequence and Memoization Let’s explore recursion by writing a function to generate the terms of the Fibonacci sequence. We will use a technique called “memoization” to make the function fast. We’ll first implement our own caching, but then we will use Python’s builtin memoization tool: the lru_cache decorator. ******** To learn Python, you can watch our playlist from the beginning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bY6m6_IIN94&list=PLi01XoE8jY... ******** Subscribe today! http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=Socratic...

List Comprehension in Python A list comprehension is a way to construct a list in Python using a single line of code. The pattern of creating an empty list, setting up a for loop, and then using several if-then clauses to determine which data should appear in the list can all be done in a single line in Python. ************** To learn Python, you can watch our playlist from the beginning: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bY6m6_IIN94&list=PLi01XoE8jY...
