Python Tutorial for Beginners with VS Code

your literary helping my course in my collage thank you for making this very understandable

I only install a new version of Python once a year when the new version comes out, but here's a word of caution for all Windows users. I keep forgetting this and having to re-learn it the hard way. Run the setup in Admin mode. Don't take any of the defaults when you understand Python. Click the option whare you choose what to install. Be sure and add Python to your PATH, and install Python for ALL user. Do everything in admin mode. I forgot to do this and wound up having to install and uninstall three times before I finally got it right.

Up till now, I have been using Sublime Text for my development, but I saw some new videos about using VS Code. I am going to try it, and this is the reason why I am watching this.

is there any complete course like js 8 Hour or other tutorials ? I see some advance stuff in these videos and It's really convenient for me to download the whole video to follow along . the only thing is I always jump back to like and like again cause I really appreciate how valuable these course are. I wish he make a advance course and learn us how to deal with packages like I see in his virtual environment ( request package) cause those stuff are rare and you got to deal with then in web sites. like I had problem how to hide the API key for a program that I wrote , and accidentally I saw it in one of his beginner videos that really helped me a lot.

Great content, well presented & explained. As a learner half the battle is getting the confidence to keep going and I was able to follow this video and have it work exactly as shown. Thank you. Also appreciated the information about VS Code and especially using the terminal, which can be a scary place to go for a beginner. Looking forward to completing the whole playlist.

how did u create you file lesson01?

I am using a Mac, and I dont every step until you typed "Python; select interpret" it said "not found.

This has been the perfect tutoriall for start (I played multiple ones) !! thanks

Im on windows py -3 --version wont bring up the version only python3 --version brings up the python version for windows very first time learning this its actually discouraging already to be honest my ultimate goal is to make 2d games

beginner here thanks for this content .i couldn't download pycharm .....

never thought gabe newell would teach me python

Thanks, for the tutorial you made it understandable. My question is if i want to make notes for Python or a note-taking app. What and Which app would you suggest, apart from Jupyter which am learning....

This went a long way!!

Thank you

Thanks for a clear video. Are you going to explain how to install Python packages with VScode?

thankyou

I used to be learning code in python with vs code but I left because I had so much troubles with it. I checked all from the beginning and I find the problem ... Thank to you, I´m getting comfortable with the platform again and I hope I can boost my knowledge . Thank you!

thanks dave!

You should use light theme on your tutorials. Some of us are using smaller screens to watch your videos. Dark screens do not display as clearly as light themes do. A large computer monitor may (in fact it does) display dark theme better than small ones do. Besides, the brightness of a large monitor can be adjusted if it is too bright.

awesome tutorial, what theme and icons are being used here? It looks good, appreciate you in advance!

Good introduction, I've been feeling a bit lost as to which direction to take as of late. I'm still slowly getting through your CSS tutorials, but I feel that I want to try something else as well just in case it doesn't lead to much in terms of future prospects. So I think learning a programming language like Python will be useful as I know it's quite popular and there's lots you can do with it. Looking forward to getting to the stage where I can get past the basics and build some personal projects.

I can't seem to verify the Python version using the terminal. I keep getting an error saying: '$' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Edit: Never mind, I just realised it's probably a bash command. Typing in the code without the '$' works fine.

Couldn't wait for your flask tutorial!

thanks

Thanks Dave, Please continue python programming .. ✋

Dave I want to ask that what to do when the terminal says-
File "<stdin>", line 1
after i wrote quit{} and pressed enter

Thank you so much Dave grey , you are so good , my favourite tutor instructor ❤👋👍🎉👏🥳👌🤝🙏🏻🫡😀🫰🏻🤗😎🙏🏻🫡🫡🫡🤷🏻‍♂️🙏🏻

cant wait for the next episode of this series

hey Dave, i really enjoy your contents. its always detailed and easily understandable . I really would like to access the next video in the series . But its shows as unavailable and hidden. Dont know why

can we expect to have more tutorials about python ?

In Your python playlist, it's showing 3 videos but 2 are unavailable till date.

Thank you so much for all your efforts continue the good work ..

hii
will you make django series after python?

Is more coming out?

Thank you Dave! My first PY practice and trial on other lang apart from JS!

Thank you for everything. Also please consider making course on firebase in near future.

Python is really nice to look at. I love JS in all of its strangeness, but I am looking forward to learning what a normal programming language feels like.

A fourth way to run the file (not sure if this works on windows).
Place this at the top of the file:
#!/usr/bin/env python
Then the file can be run directly like an executable with `./hello.py`

Thank you Dave... I've been always wanting to learn Python, and who better to learn it from than you? Love It!

We're going python! Thank You Dave

Dave, I'm 100% sure it gonna be great playlist once again. Thank you!
suggestion: Before directly jumping into the fundamentals it would be great to know details (under the hood how python communicates and executes, and how the memory are getting occupied and freed when the variables are used). Kind of 1 therotical video dedicated to this would be helpful to understand more clearly.

THANKS IN ADVANCE!

Yo yo yo yoo this is huge !!! Hey Dave do you think python is similar to Javascript, or it is just me ?

No Nextjs ? I'm really looking forward to learning next from you 🙏

There are many other Python courses, but I've been waiting for Dave's Python course.
Thank you!

Thanks for the upload. However, would prefer a Next js course. Since there are lot of terminologies like SSG, SSR, ISR, etc. which many people find confusing. Request you for the same

Esse vídeo na hora certa, é bizarro do nada estar entendendo tudo em inglês sem legenda XD

Dave thanks for starting this. I am a python programmer and hope that you would at some point teach how to create complex models ourselves and train them like chat GPT

Could I have please a AngularTS course?

Awesome to see some Python content as well! it's the nr1/2 most favorite program language every year it seems!
