Python Crash Course

Learn to define python variables, assign numeric and string values, perform operations, and print results, including converting numbers to strings for display.

Learn how strings function as text variables in Python, create multi-line strings, print and concatenate strings with the plus operator, and combine them into a single output.

Learn to use the string replace function to search and replace words or characters in a string, such as changing hello to goodbye or substituting a name with another.

Create an interactive program to collect user input and display it on the screen. Learn to use input methods to obtain three string variables and present them as a sentence.

Learn to define and manipulate lists in Python, including creating lists with brackets, indexing from zero, using negative indices to access the last items, and replacing list elements.

In this lecture, learn to modify lists by deleting items at specific indices. Remove the first or last item and append new items with list.append to grow the list.

Explore essential list tricks in Python, including finding the max and min values, computing the list length, and printing results. Save these values for display and analysis.

Explore tuples in Python crash course: learn their immutability, how they differ from lists, and how to create single-element tuples with a trailing comma.

Explore dictionaries as key-value mappings, using brackets to map keys like English words to Spanish values, access with keys, and manage entries by adding, deleting, and listing keys and values.

Explore how to use Python for loops to iterate over lists and strings, print each item or character, and run multi-line code blocks within the loop.

Use the range function to create lists like 1 to 10 or 1 to 100, then print them and loop over the items to output each value.

Loop over numbers with a for loop and the range function to count from 1 to 10, and use four spaces of indentation to avoid syntax errors.

Explore how the while loop repeats a block of code, potentially indefinitely, until a condition is met or the program exits, with the counter incremented inside.

Explore how a while loop in Python uses an else clause to run a final code block after the loop finishes, illustrating repeated execution and post-loop behavior.

learn to use a while loop to input numbers, convert input to integers, and append them to a list until a number greater than 10 stops, then print the list.

Learn how to define and call your own functions in Python, reuse code with function definitions, and call them multiple times using brackets, alongside the print function.

Call a function with parameters to output a name, and pass multiple parameters like a first name and a second parameter; keep the count around three to avoid confusion.

learn how to return values from a function, optionally print results inside the function, assign outputs to outside variables, and return multiple values for use in your program.

Learn how to pass lists as parameters to a show list function in Python, and iterate with a for loop to output each element.
