In the following lessons, you are going to write your first Python code
and get to know some of the most fundamental concepts.
First, you will discover the syntax and how to work with numbers in Python.
I will introduce the concept of variables and you will
understand why you need them and what to do with them.
You will also get to know the different types of variables you can use
to represent different kinds of numbers and data.
Also, we'll have a look at lists.
At the end of the section, you will be able to
write short programs to interact with the user
and store the values you got with variables.
For this section, we are just going to use the
Python shell we got when we installed Python.
This way, we can directly dive into the Python functionalities
without wasting time doing configuration work.
And we are going to install and use a proper text editor only after this section.
And as I previously said in the introduction,
I encourage you to watch first the entire
section even if you don't understand everything.
Then, you might try to do the exercise or rewatch again,
this time using the pause and rewind buttons.
