Tried installing 3.9, looks nothing like it does for you, and there is no anaconda navigator
@Shubham Goyal python much better

Why didn’t you use Semi-coloms?
THANKS a lot!!!!
This is my first video on python. I have ZERO experience and my field is in medical. I am looking for a career change and you made this video so easy for me to understand. I am close to my 40’s and I am that old school person that had a hard time turning on the monitor at her last job. Thank you for this video and for everything that you do to help others understand.
@Normal Person Research Islam then, could make a difference to your entire existence, not just in this life but the forever after as well
Hello Vanessa Im also changing my career from Teacher to Programmer
Lets keep going
What happened to you right now?
@MrRusell86 Yeap, you might be right
rip
He explains it so simple that even a baby can understand it. I’ve been on other tutorials and this is the best one on YouTube.
@Gift Chinyenum yeah relatable for me too it’s sounds like something…
Gramer!!
this is the second tutorial ive watched lmao and im already starting to learn code
@Jake me too?
Literally, he tells you everything you need to what to download, in correct order just amazingg
Agreed
This is awesome! I love how you mark the time points and name each of them – soooo easy to navigate and makes learning on YouTube more efficient!
This is amazing. I went to a phyton class the other day, I couldn’t understand any of what the instructor taught. This is a gem. Thank you CS Dojo
Shout out to every one learning programming during quarantine
Fug quarantine
Its weird to see a comment like this 2 yeras later
@merdemoiii – how far are you now?
I started yesterdau and i can already program a Bill calculater with % tips
v1 = True
I’m 12
Great video, thank you for making it. I was having trouble understanding how to swap variables and this really helped me out. Here’s to Day 2 on 100 days of Python!
Thank you CS Dojo for taking the time and sharing your expertise…please continue. Always yearned to go this direction but thought I missed it because I never learnt it when I left school – thank you!!! You have the ability to explain it so clearly, the best I’ve ever seen on youtube.
Thank you very much. This is by far the best tutorial I have found on youtube as a beginner. You made it simple and easy to understand. Keep up the good job

Exactly what we need
thank you
Nobody on YouTube can explain better then him , Thanks CS Dojo
Thank you Cs Dojo, I have watched many lectures in YouTube and I always confuse and struggle to understand RL and how we select action and this is the best one and I understood every single part 🙂 .
Thanks for the simple tutorial, most other beginners tutorials are very fast and hard to follow. You make it very easy and take the time to explain slowly, thank you!
You are a amazing teacher sir! Love you, keep making these type of videos so I can learn python and other languages easily
I may be a bit late into the “Let’s learn programming during quarantine” party but I assure you we will all come out of this with fruitful results. Stay safe everyone <3
Hey, it’s been a year. How’s progress?
Good PFP
@Jerry Jones job @ mc donalds
Thanks ?
I find it interesting programming is booming right now. Eventually with the saturation it’ll go down in value and something else will take its spot
I love how precise and accurate you are when explaining..
Thank you so much this is so cool, I am a Med student but my dream was to be a programmer, you made this so easy to follow. I got the swapping variables exercise in the first try so now I fell motivated to keep watching this tutorials haha! Greetings from Ecuador.
Excellent introduction to Python…I have very basic knowledge of programming but you made this interesting and easier to grasp the basics..thank you.
Great video. The simple problem you gave really cemented the concept in my head. Also, the drawings you do really help me visualize what’s going on. I appreciate you & your video!
