Here are all the course lessons.

Python 2 vs Python 3

2m

Learn the difference between Python 2 and Python 3, and why you don't need to learn Python 2 anymore.
Where is Python Used These Days?

6m 32s

Python 3 is used in every corner of software including websites, machine learning, A.I., video games, self driving cars, search engines, and pretty much everywhere else.
Installing Python

1m 58s

In this lesson we'll learn how to install Python 3.7 and Python 3.8 on Windows, MacOS and Linux.
Command Line Crash Course

5m 41s

Writing Python means you need to know some command line moves. We'll gently go over the most commonly used commands. Don't worry, it's not hard, I promise!
Running Python Code

5m 45s

There are a couple different ways to run your Python code on your computer. We'll explore how to do just that in this lesson.
Jupyter Notebooks

7m 26s

This Python 3 course comes with interactive notebooks. Execute the code you see me writing, take notes beside the code, and safely experiment to learn Python in a hands-on way!
Where to Download the Code

1m 37s

To get the most out of this course you'll probably want to download the code I've written in the videos. In this lesson I'll show you where to download the code.
Taking Notes Beside Code

4m 21s

Python for Everybody attempts to utilize various ways of learning. Notes are a part of that learning journey. In this lesson I'll show you how to take notes beside the interactive Python code!
Asking Great Questions

2m 30s

For many, the reason you want to take a course is to have access to a dedicated teacher. Learn how to ask awesome questions to get awesome answers from your teacher!
Basic Arithmetic

3m 25s

This is fancy talk for "math". Python 3 has a very simple way of performing simple math equations. Don't worry, this isn't calculus.
Variables

6m 03s

Variables let you store "answers" in shortcuts with names. That's basically the entire lesson in one sentence. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Formatting in Python

6m 24s

Python code does not look like your standard programming code (called syntax). Python uses indentation and prefers to not use curly brackets for everything. Let's take a closer look at this.
Python Data Types

9m 56s

An introduction to Python data types. This is vital to know. In this lesson I'll briefly go over the most common data types you'll use every day before we dive into individual data types in their own
Mutable vs. Immutable

8m 58s

In Python some data types can be changed. Others are set forever until you either delete the variable or give it a new value. There's one data type in particular that's not what you think!
Numbers

4m 47s

One. Ah ah ah. Two. Ah ah ah. Three. Ah ah ah. Numbers have been part of our lives since we were kids. Numbers are actually very important in programming (and in Python) these days.
Strings (Sequences)

8m 28s

Let's learn about a "sequence". The first one is a string. Not like a knitting string.. but more like a sentence. Confused? This lesson will clarify everything.
Lists (Sequences)

4m 27s

Lists are another form of "sequence". We can loop through them and take an action based on every item in a list. Just like shopping for groceries... It's exactly like shopping for groceries, actually!
Indexing And Slicing

6m 43s

Strings, lists and other versions of sequences have this thing called an "index". It's a number that represents the position of a letter in a word, or the position of an item in a list. Also slicing?
String Properties And Methods

8m 47s

Strings are part of this thing called an "object". Objects have special features and pieces of data that come with them. This lesson will show you how to access that data and the special features.
User Input

3m 58s

Accepting user input is part of every good program. This lesson will show you how to ask a user for input and how to use that input afterwards.
Print Formatting

6m 26s

Being able to add variables to strings and print it out is important in Python debugging. This lesson will show you the old Python 3.5 way, and the newer Python 3.6+ way to format your sentences.
Lists

10m 07s

Lists let you store multiple items and preserve the order. Like a grocery list.. if you were trying to get in and out of the store as fast as possible.
Dictionaries

13m 13s

Dictionaries allow you store data inside of a variable, but you can use an "internal name" to reference it. Now you can group similar variables together into one larger variable. Hurray, cleaner code!
Tuples

5m 56s

Tuples are almost identical to lists. Except you can't edit them. They are immutable lists.
Sets

6m 59s

A set is a unique Python data type that only allows you to store unique items, no duplicates allowed! But there's a catch... *cue scary music*
Booleans

4m 40s

Booleans are true or false. It's like 1 or 0. On or off. Yes or no. Actually you don't even need to watch this video, this description summed it up. ;)
None

3m 59s

A Python variable walks into a bar and asks a stranger "How's it going today?". The stranger turns to the variable and says, "None ya business!". Humour helps make learning more fun!
Files

11m 32s

Files are incredibly important in programming languages. Python is no exception here. Learn how to work with files in this lesson.
Your First Python Program

8m 56s

What's a programming course if you don't make a program right away? In this lesson you'll create a simple, but functional, Python program.
Comparison Operators

9m 21s

Comparison operators tell your program what to do based on certain conditions. For example: if you are hungry, eat food. Programs and Python work the exact same way.
Comparison Shortcuts

8m 24s

Python gives us lots of nice shortcuts so we don't need to damage our hands typing the same thing over and over again. Let's look at shortcut comparison operators.
Multiple Comparison Operators

7m 31s

It's possible in Python to use multiple comparison operators at the same time.
Chaining Operators Together

6m 41s

Sometimes you need to check if something is a match against multiple answers. Chaining comparison operators in Python let's you check against multiple answers.
Introduction to Loops

3m 08s

Loops let you perform an action over and over again. If you had a sandwich you wouldn't say "bite chew swallow, bite chew swallow, etc". You'd say "bite chew swallow until you are done eating". Loops!
For Loops

8m 12s

This is a special type of loop that will cycle over all your items in an iterable (like a list or tuple!)
Looping Through Dictionaries

5m 03s

Dictionaries aren't like lists or tuples, they can't be looped through as easily. But in Python it's not hard at all! Let's learn how to loop through key/value pairs.
While Loops

3m 11s

A while loop is a loop that will do a thing while a condition is true. This is true in most languages, including Python 3. but be careful, they have a dark side!
Break And Continue

5m 22s

Sometimes you want to loop over a list of items, perform some logic and if you found the answer you're looking for you want to end the loop, or skip to the next iteration.
Type Casting

9m 32s

All user input comes in as a string. But you can't compare apples to oranges, even if they're the same shape. Type casting lets us convert apples into oranges so we can make an accurate comparison.
Helpful Operators

10m 07s

A bunch of misc. Python functions that will help you in your day-to-day coding.
List Comprehensions

9m 07s

I bet you never wanted to write a for loop in a single line of code? But once you learn how to do this, you'll never want to go back. List comprehensions are an AMAZING feature in Python.
Dictionary Comprehensions

4m 02s

If you ever need to create a dictionary out of 2 lists (happens more than you'd think!) you might want to use a dictionary comprehension instead of writing all your dictionary key/value pairs manually
Functions

16m 25s

Functions are essential in every programming language, including Python. They seem hard at first, but they are a lot easier than most people think.
Args and Kwargs

8m 14s

Args and Kwargs.. you'll hear this a lot in Python. Learn what they are and how they work!
Comments

6m 47s

Make notes in your code with "comments". It's good for future-you, and your co-workers. Comments you sane in large programs.
Map

11m 38s

Ever need to apply a function to every item in a list? If so.. the Python map function is your friend.
Filter

4m 30s

The filter function lets you filter data very easily. A good example is skipping through the Uber Eats menu and going straight to McDonalds. You filtered everything else out.
Lambda Expressions

3m 31s

Functions in a single line of code! (Seriously, it's really cool!)
Scope

9m 04s

Sometimes your variables work in a function, sometimes they don't. What's up with that? This is a feature called scope in Python, and it's essential to know how it works.
Welcome to OOP

12m 55s

Object Oriented Programming. It's basically just grouping variables and functions together. Actually that's exactly what it is. No need to watch this video anymore ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Creating Your First Class

2m 28s

Create your first Python class. We'll start small and work our way up to more advanced classes later.
Class Attributes

5m 37s

Classes have attributes. Not sure what a Python class attribute is? That means this lesson is for you.
Class Methods

6m 21s

Class methods let you perform some kind super advanced crazy type of logic in a class. I made that up. A method is really just a function in a class. But it always takes at least one argument.
Real Life OOP Example

5m 52s

Let's take a look at a more realistic OOP example.
Class Inheritance

7m 08s

It's not like nesting functions. It's more like layering functions. Only in this case, we're layering classes on top of each other.
Class Interfaces

5m 29s

In advanced code that should be re-used you'll end up creating a blueprint for other classes to use. That's a class interface. Watch this lesson to learn how they work.
Super Function

4m 53s

When you've inherited a class you can still access the original classes methods and execute them. Learn how in this lesson.
Dunder Methods

7m 04s

Double underscore methods, or "magic" methods, are special methods built into Python. We can work with these and overwrite the default data, too.
Introduction to Packages

2m 39s

"Just download the package" said the other developer at your future Python job. But what is a package? Let's learn about them now.
Installing 3rd Party Packages

4m 19s

Python has one of the largest 3rd party ecosystems in the world. If you need something special, chances are someone has made an open source package already. Might as well use their code!
Finding 3rd Party Packages

3m 29s

Learn how to find 3rd party packages in Python.
Seeing Installed Packages

2m 48s

How to check if you have a package installed already.
Introduction to Modules

3m 43s

Modules. Files. Modules. Files. Modules... you get the point. A module is basically just a Python file you can use from another Python file.
Creating a Package

8m 04s

Learn how to create your own local package for your Python programs!
Name and Main

7m 20s

Why does "Name and Main" sound like a steakhouse? It has nothing to do with steak. But it does have every thing to do with imports and executing file data.
Errors and Exceptions

6m 15s

Errors happen. You can NOT avoid them. It's a fact of life, your programs will have errors somewhere. But that doesn't mean your code should crash your program. Learn how to handle errors gracefully.
Catching Exceptions

12m 19s

When you get an error, you need to "handle" it so your code doesn't crash.
Unit Tests

12m 11s

Unit tests let you test your code. You should actually try to break your own code! Unit tests ensure your code consistently produces expected answers.
Nested Functions

7m 14s

In Python we can nest functions inside of functions.
Decorators

8m 23s

Python has this cool feature that lets you add extra functionality to an existing function. It's like a toggle for function features!
Generators

14m 42s

Generators. Like loops, but not quite. Learn what they are and how to create one!
Linting

7m 38s

The Python community is picky about good looking code. In this lesson I'll show you 3 common ways to keep your code clean and unpolluted.
Virtual Environments

13m 24s

Virtual environments keep your project code separated from other projects. This means you can install two versions of the same package and have no more worries about code conflicts!
Requirement Files

3m 51s

Requirement files or common in Python. It's a list of all your packages that your 3rd party project needs to operate.
Interactive Python

3m 14s

A better way to write Python in your shell.
Python Versions

5m 34s

Some people need to support multiple Python versions. This lesson will show you how you can do that.
Local Server

4m 03s

Did you know you can run a local server to show your static files (HTML, CSS and JavaScript files)? Yep, it's built right into Python!
Project: Demonstration

51s

Let's take a look a the final projects when it's done.
Project: Python Environment

1m 54s

It's a new Python project. It gets a new Python virtual environment.
Project: Required Packages

1m 53s

New project. New requirements. Here's what we need to get up and running.
Project: Custom Machine Learning Model

1m 58s

Machine learning "models" are a bunch of crazy math files with "stored knowledge". We can swap them out to get better results. But first, let's install our main model.
Project: The Code

4m 29s

It's 20 lines of codes. Seriously, that's it! 20 lines of Python can leverage machine learning and detect objects (and people) inside of images! We wrote longer classes in this course than that..
Project: First Detection

5m 12s

Detect objects in images! This is our first set of results.
Project: Second Detection

2m 28s

Detect more objects in images! This is our second set of results.
Project: Confidence Matters

4m 34s

Confidence in life is important for making decisions. Machine learning is the same. If someone said "I'm 17% certain you're working on a computer" you'd give that a second thought, no?
Project: How to Learn More

1m 35s

Was this project super interesting to you? Here's how you can continue learning more. You can even add object detection to a video! (That's like some NSA stuff..)
