1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000 In the following lessons, you are going to write your first Python code 2 00:00:04,001 --> 00:00:08,000 and get to know some of the most fundamental concepts. 3 00:00:08,001 --> 00:00:13,000 First, you will discover the syntax and how to work with numbers in Python. 4 00:00:13,001 --> 00:00:17,000 I will introduce the concept of variables and you will 5 00:00:17,001 --> 00:00:19,000 understand why you need them and what to do with them. 6 00:00:19,001 --> 00:00:24,000 You will also get to know the different types of variables you can use 7 00:00:24,001 --> 00:00:27,000 to represent different kinds of numbers and data. 8 00:00:27,001 --> 00:00:30,000 Also, we'll have a look at lists. 9 00:00:30,001 --> 00:00:32,989 At the end of the section, you will be able to 10 00:00:33,001 --> 00:00:36,000 write short programs to interact with the user 11 00:00:36,001 --> 00:00:40,000 and store the values you got with variables. 12 00:00:40,001 --> 00:00:43,021 For this section, we are just going to use the 13 00:00:43,033 --> 00:00:46,000 Python shell we got when we installed Python. 14 00:00:46,001 --> 00:00:50,000 This way, we can directly dive into the Python functionalities 15 00:00:50,001 --> 00:00:54,000 without wasting time doing configuration work. 16 00:00:54,001 --> 00:00:59,000 And we are going to install and use a proper text editor only after this section. 17 00:00:59,001 --> 00:01:02,000 And as I previously said in the introduction, 18 00:01:02,001 --> 00:01:04,753 I encourage you to watch first the entire 19 00:01:04,765 --> 00:01:08,000 section even if you don't understand everything. 20 00:01:08,001 --> 00:01:12,000 Then, you might try to do the exercise or rewatch again, 21 00:01:12,001 --> 00:01:16,000 this time using the pause and rewind buttons.
