REMEMBER TO ALWAYS FEED YOUR CURIOSITY
At 1:50, you should say you *declare* the type, not "cast" it. Typecasting is something else.
marian519 yea I was confused about this too lol
agreed, it's not very helpful to use terms that have some loaded meaning in this area even though they might seem like synonyms.
*triggered*
i cringed a little at that too
Typecast from undefined?
For me...
Python: is good for learning coding as a beginner
C#: good for actually coding
So why is Python widely considered the best language for Machine Leaning, Deep Learning and Data Science?
Not to mention back-end web development with frameworks such as Django and Flask
@@DaniloSilva-pl3sq that was 3 months ago. Now i think about it differently. C# is good for gaming (which was my field) but python is good for the purposes you’ve mentioned.
@@DaniloSilva-pl3sq because data scientist can focus on the algorithms and not the code. they also arent writing code for production purposes, but to train models and collect data. When its time to code an actual app or program that uses said models, then most dont use python, they switch to a more performant language like C++.
@@Phoenix-ip5kg godot also exists
You can use "var" in C# to avoid explicitly declaring the type.
Also, you can use "dynamic" for variables that change type.
Python is my favourite language rn, I just don't like how when I accidentally add an extra space everything stops working and it's usually difficult to find
I have had the same thing happen to me especially when copying and pasting code I was testing in idle.
Keep in mind that C is a faster language for your computer to process
@@fgbeast5805
But python is way faster for me to implement anything. It's for testing out your ideas and it's fast enough most of the time.
Today's computers are fast enough for python, unless you are doing many iterations or system programming.
I prefer everything that's got explicit variable declarations. it's clearer in terms of what parameters to give to a function. if i'm hacking together something quick in python and come back to it a month later i may have to check the correct way to pass params to that old function before i do anything with it, this is all "automatically" taken care of in something like C#, essentially forcing me to document my params at least a little bit
@@fgbeast5805 what about golang
c#: [var] : am i a joke to you?!?
[dynamic]: hello mere mortal
Bear in mind that specifying the type of the variable in C# exists for a reason. It's there so that both the compiler and the code writer understand a variable is being declared and used. This comes in handy for catching bugs as a typo will cause your code to not compile. As opposed to Python, a typo will simply create a new variable and you'll have a logic error (typically harder to debug) instead of a compile time error. I'm writing my own scripting language and ended up switching from Python to C# style for this very reason.
As a quick aside, in C#, you don't need to always specify the type when declaring a variable. If you are declaring and initializing, you can use `var` and the type of the variable will become the type of the expression.
I'm excited to learn Python because of how terse it is, but honestly it represents a lot of the things I've been trying to run away from: non-strict variable declaration, dynamic type systems and a focus on mutability. After over a decade of experience, I find these things to be more of a hindrance than a benefit especially as your code base grows.
@Shahar Erez you're talking nonesense
@Shahar Erez It wasn't trolling. Man, do you know about architecture and prediction? When you're writting some code, you need to understand for which purpose and trying to predict what it will be in future. So it sounds weird to me, that it's much easier to use language without strongly typing. It means that you don't understand what you're writting.
well, C# is power!
@Glizzster 多 Type Console.ReadKey(); instead of ReadLine so you can just press any Key you want and it closes.
@Glizzster Console.WriteLine("bruv you indian?");
Console.ReadLine;
He just described everything I hate about python and love about everything else.
These 2 are my favorite programming languages, but I have to say, I think C# is the 'better' one. Yes, I know they are different and they are used differently (e.g. Python is more used by data scientists while C# is more popular in a business environment) - but I think C# is more modern and advanced. I will give just 1 example to prove this - Linq. While Python has list comprehensions and lambdas, and they certainly are powerful, they are nowhere as elegant and convenient as Linq. All that said, I do like both languages a lot, but have a slight preference for C#.
What about Java? Should I learn Java first, before I learn C# or Python?
@@omairtech6711 unless you want to program android apps specifically I would steer way clear off Java. C# is a lot like Java but more powerful, more commonly used (again, except for android of course), less cumbersome, more performant and you can even program games in it (using Unity). The only successful PC game using Java that I know of is Minecraft, and that has constant issues with memory leaks and stuttering due to Java garbage collection. I'm not a big fan of Python either but it's still a better choice than Java. Feel free to ask if you got further questions :)
@@QuantumFluxable Thank you! I have already started learning Java. Should I switch to C#? Or should I finish learning Java? I am coming back to coding. I used to program in Delphi. Later I used Microsft VisualBasic.Net. I haven't coded in years. Started relearning just a few days ago.
@@omairtech6711 I suppose that depends on how far you got into Java already, but I've learned a lot of languages over the years and eventually realized that one can never "learn" a programming language fully, it's more like a tool: I'm sure you know how to use a hammer, but can you use it as well as a carpenter or a smith? probably not, but that doesn't mean you should never pick up a hammer, it just means you could be more efficient with it. Programming languages are the same, once you got the basic concepts you can use them to do all sorts of things, and while you do that you continue learning the tiny details and become better at using the language, but you never finish learning it.
That's a super long way of saying "it doesn't matter as much what language you learn". C#, when first introduced, was being advertised as a Java that isn't Java. Basic syntax between the two is very similar, so it shouldn't be a problem for you to switch if you want to do that, especially since you used to program in Delphi.
@Memento Mori Well, that completely depends on what you want to do with your startup. If your startup is gonna produce Android apps, it's Java. Electronics? You better hire a C programmer for microcontrollers if that's relevant. Websites? Ruby on Rails. And so on...
I'm not an expert and also no native speaker, nor very informed with the general programming terminology, so if there's anything you think is wrong, feel free to correct me. In fact I don't know most of the stuff but am making educational guesses instead based on how the discussed points in this video make sense to me.
In C#, the reason why you have to give a variable a type and can't change its value to a value of another type is not necessarily bad (and not there because the language can't figure it out by itself, in fact there are ways it can which I will point out later) but rather a design choice. When declaring a variable as one type it barely ever makes sense to give it later on a value of another since one variable should always represent one specific "idea". And almost all of the time that one won't change its type since it's bound to it.
If you want C# to figure out the type by itself you can just always use the "var" keyword which will make the variable of the type of the value that you're assigning it to. The only times you can't do that, as far as I know, are when you're just declaring a variable but not initializing it, or you're giving a non-struct object it's default value "null" since that could be valid for any reference type and couldn't be figured out just by the value a variable is being assigned to.
If you want to use a dynamic type meaning it can change its value type afterwards, even though that has very limited practical uses with the main disadvantage being that the compiler has no clue on what type it is and therefore what fields, properties and functions it contains, just use the keyword "dynamic".
That being said, I absolutely do love python for its syntax of not having to resort to semicolons and espacially curly braces. Since you want to format your code to be readable anyways, in my opinion it absolutely makes sense to merge the syntax and indentation into one to avoid much visual noise.
In my opinion it makes the code easier to read to have the curly braces and semicolons. Idk, I guess my mind just processes it wierdly.
First off: big fan; but there are some mistakes:
The types are declared not cast
Python doesn't need to declare variable types but not because it's Interpreted but because of it's type system which is dynamically & implicitly typed (while still being strongly typed I think?); Whereas C# usually is statically, weakly and explicitly typed (with Support for dynamic typing and type inference(recommended by MS))
If there are errors in this please correct me :D
Also C# has a model that's similar to (c)python's: compile to bytecode or some IR and then be interpreted by a VM (where C# then is JIT compiled) afaik
I'm pretty sure c# is strongly typed too (except if you use pointers). At least, I haven't yet stumbled over a scenario where you can accidentally access memory as the wrong type
I'm going to leave here, if you don't mind.
If anyone wants to clear the output, type 'Ctrl + Shift + P'. It will pull up a window, then type 'Clear Output'.
I searched for this problem, but didn't find an answer. Thankfully someone said to do it with the terminal, so I guessed if I used output instead, it would work.
Also, save your code before you run it, otherwise it will run a previous save of the code. Or if you didn't save it at all, it won't run. At least that's what happened in my case.
The guy who made this video has no clue about C# lol. He doesn’t realize all the other uses of C#, .NET’s great documentation, plus the consistent and great functionality included out of the box. The only thing he talked about was syntax. Lol.
@@PlutoisaPlanet he's a pro at c#, since it's the language used in unity and he's a unity god
I don't want to be that guy but have you heard of dynamics in c#.

nice video. Personally I prefer C#, it is strongly-typed meaning far easier to find errors while you are writing the code. With Python runtime errors are a nightmare
you are wrong, Python is strongly typed too... Python is dynamically typed and C# is statically typed and that's true difference... it's good to understand some terms before you start to complain... frankly, from your post, I doubt you did anything serious in Python, hence best way to get rid of "nightmares" is to wake up ;-)
@@vxsniffer pretty petty, are you? He's not wrong, though, just did not get the right term. I know both languages and this is one of the reasons I personally prefer C# or any statically-typed language, respectively.
@@jeromep5294 - there is all about terms, syntax, remember? statically and strongly are different ideas, hence my comment.
@@vxsniffer "it's good to understand some terms before you start to complain" just makes you seem like a condescending asshole though. doesn't matter if they used the wrong terms, the opinion of Imperial Dynamics still shows they understood the concepts.

i really love how he makes his videos like the "SYNTAX" part. Although it is simple for many, I'd like to learn how he does his videos.
5:25 you can use the datatype: var -> variable, in c++ it is auto.
If your thinking which one to learn, take a minute to reflect on what you want to do with code. Wanna make games? C#. Wanna make bots? Python. They are good for different things. If you have enough time, then try to learn both. Learning another language usually cant hurt :)
Thank you for this video. I have been out of programming for a while and this has helped me quite a bit.
Really thought you did a great job outlining the syntax. Plus seeing the side by side comparison drives the point home nicely.
I love ur videos man, going to school for mechanical engineering and computing technology. U make spending all my time watching yt videos feel productive XD
Thank you so much for creating the tutorial vids!
For big projects I choose c# every single the day.
C# makes the code consistent and give you more control The chance to build stable secure apps is bigger. Python in the other hand has more focus on the business logic o ('human logic') Wich is great when you are dealing with data science you don't want to mess with data types you write spaghetti code that just work you don't need the same control , but if you work with huge projects this can easy get annoying and hard to work so I only use python where I need fast development without the need of that kind of code control.
Great tutorial. I'd love this to be a whole series. Learning python and c# at the same time.
Nvm, I just noticed it is a whole series and I'm dumb. Thanks Jabrils!

I started with python with no code experience did it for 5 month I was hype but slowly started not liking it I build some simple games like hang man and guess my number everyone say start with python it easy to understand they right about that but the reason I wanted to start coding to build games so my friend brother told me why not try C# and use unity with it to build games he also told me is best to try other languages u might like them better he was right I started using c# idk why I found it more easy to use then python. If you are a person who want to make game I strongly suggest like the guy in the video say use c# to make games I been using C# now for a month and learn a bit but love this language more then python :) also grate video sorry for the long comment I just want to let people know if you are not enjoying a language try different one u never know u might find other languages much easier and also like the guy in video say some languages are use for different stuff grate video mate
I’m in the exact same position. Everyone told me to learn python first for beginners. I used python for 3 months making simple games like dodging blocks, sprite walk test, and space invaders. But I was disappointed how slow python in running bigger games I wanted to make, the errors are so hard to find, and many python jobs are in data science which I’m personally not interested in. I started learning JavaScript, CSS, and HTML for web development and starting C# and unity and it runs so smooth and well and can do way bigger projects. I think python is good for beginners and people interested in data science, but C# is where it’s at for game development
I don't know about u guys, but I like both languages. There is a olynpiad thing going on in my school so that's why I'm learning Python first. I want to learn both and be able to make some cool games on Godot Engine :D
im in a similar case :D i started learning with HTML,CSS,Java ( with m1m0 app) and got interested in gameprogramming, i tryed unity , unreal and godot and fall toadally in love with godot.... but now the big question .... shoud i learn C# or python ( godot use Gdscript also an version of python, and at the moment i make one month scool course for C# ... but STILL i dont can choose like i have all time, an hard time when i shoud choose) ... python i like a bit more at the moment but i dont like it when i have really long loading or complicated games when it work better with C#

In C# i would replace bool and int with var. Essentially the compiler will still complain when you use the variable in invalid places, so type checking is still done in this case.

This is what I get when I do the print(doit) command just like you did with the doit = True set up just the same. I reinstalled it, ran the language as Python, and the interpreter as Python, and still it won't work. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
Do you know if Python was added to the PATH when you downloaded it? If not, you have to manually add it. Or you can uninstall Python and re-download it, but make sure you check the "Add Python 3.7 to PATH' button. I believe it's on the first screen you see when you start installing Python. Good luck! 😊
I had this problem too: first go to windows search bar and search "path", click "edit the system environment variables", on the pop-up click "environment variables", on the new pop-up find "Path" on the list, select it and click edit, click "new" and paste the path of Python (mine was C:\Users\[YOURUSERNAME]\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32).

Those terms are in the playlist that's in the description.
Great, thank you.
I like python, because it’s quick to get applications running. However for large projects where you may be working in a team,or needs to be maintained, you should use c#. The strong typing prevents bugs from forming and helps greatly for self documenting code.
Does the ide matter?
Can I program games in Unity using C# in VScode?
You could use :
var something = true;
var something1 = 1337;
var something2 = new List();
also if that's not enough for you and you want to feel the snake language even more, you can play with the "dynamic" in C# :)
Why does it show the wrong number in the output if I change the variables. (For example, i changed the a = 5 in the video into a = 7 and it still showed 5). I can fix this by debugging but do I really need to do that every time? newbie here.
Moyk Sus102 it sounds to me like u did not save the file before running the code.
See at about 16:44 with the int a variable = 5 and = 0 on both C# and Python windows in the if statement..
as the variable is last changed to zero, if you were to print(a)/Console.WriteLine(a) would a have the value 5 or 0? Because it is changed in the if statement, would it revert to its original declared value outside of that if statement code block? Or would it stay as what it is changed to within the if statement code block? I feel like it will be 0 but Im not too sure so if anyone knows the answer itd be appreciated :-) cheers in advance.
the variable is only last changed to 0 IF doit = True. if doit = False, then that entire code block is ignored, its like it never existed, thus, a = 5 still.

With the use of dynamic feature (C# 4.0) you can write doit = true; and then doit = 1234; I have implemented such an object and I'm able to write the following:
var doit = new DynamicStruct(); // DynamicStruct is my implementation (~150 lines of code) that uses dynamic feature introduced in C# 4.0
doit = true;
doit = false;
doit.whatever = 1234; // no need to declare "whatever", just write the assignation, it will be created on the fly
doit.whatever.anotherVariable = new List();
doit.a_new_var_when_I_want = doit.whatever;
When looking at comparisons between C# and Python over the Internet, because they are not made thoroughly, all of them are pretty much the same incomplete and deceptive consensus.

System.Console.WriteLine ("Hello, world");

Which IDE would you suggest for Machine learning using Python?
@ProfesorYT I'll surely check pycharm out. Hope it meets my requirements, Thanks. 🙂
Nice video! Hope you don't mind me saying that there's a couple things here that are not quite right though.
Static typing in C# (i.e bool something = true) isn't the same as casting. Casting is where you implicitly or explicitly cast one data type into a different one (i.e something.ToString()).
An "interpreted language" (like Python is) does refer to the fact that it "interprets" variable types. Instead, this behaviour means that Python is a dynamically typed language, rather than a statically typed language like C#. Static typing means that if string value = "Something", the variable "value" must now always contain a string. In Python, I don't think you can set types explicitly, and variables can contain whatever you want them to! Crazy town!
An interpreted language is one that has no "build" step, like C#. Instead, a separate program called an interpreter will execute the code. C# is compiled into machine code and executed directly by the processor.
C# in my opinion is easier to code with as it's more structured and less concise, so you can actually tell what types variables are and what functions do.
which ide is he using in video for python
I start using c# because of unity but I now think python is a better language, is that accurate? Knowing both of them is there a reason other than unity to keep using c# over python?

Unexpected token 'you'
From age 16-18, I've tried learning C++ through Udemy, whatever from Khan Academy, and whatever from Arduino. I failed all of them, yes even the kid learning one.
In each instance I've failed to correctly understand if statements, but now I do.
I thought whatever was in the if statement, was opposite of what it needs to run, example.
**** //Correct
bool doit = true;
if (doit) //In order for this to run, you need doit to equal true.
{
doit = false;
}
****
But when I tried it the opposite way
**** // Incorrect
bool doit = false;
if (doit) //In order for this to run, you need doit to equal false.
{
doit = true;
}
****
But now I realize, when I'm almost 21, 5 years later, that for an if statement to work, it always needs it to be true, and not the opposite of what it contains, at least in a boolean sense.
Yeah Umm having loosely typed variables can be a HUGE problem when it comes to introducing bugs into your program while also introducing hard to debug errors and unwanted behaviors! It's like we haven't learned anything in these last 30+ years! It's like Javascript in a way!
Thanks, but I'll stick with the easily debuggable, maintainable, and predictable behavior code of C#!!
Might be a dumb question but didn't you set the variable "doit" = to False the second time so wouldn't the logic of the if statement be...
doit = False
Print ('checking...')
if doit ( which is now = to False):
doit = False
Print("blah")
Shouldn't it print the if statement because doit is equal to False? I think I'm just confused..
if doit actually means if doit == True
(Also, keep in mind that doit = False means you assign the value 'False" to the variable doit, whereas doit == False means you're checking if variable doit is 'False. That can be a bit confusing when you first learn Python. )
If you want to understand this better, try the code the following three ways:
1.
doit = False
Print ('checking...')
if doit:
doit = False
Print("blah")
2.
doit = False
Print ('checking...')
if doit == True:
doit = False
Print("blah")
3.
doit = False
Print ('checking...')
if doit == False:
doit = False
Print("blah")
You'll see that ways no. 1 and no. 2 work the same. Way no. 3 prints out 'blah'. 😊 (You don't have to use doit = False inside the if blocks, but I left it there to match the code we started with.)
@@BiancaAguglia this actually helped my brain so much haha thank you!
@@nickareekadan7313 Very glad to hear that. 😊
@@nickareekadan7313 Or you can put it this way, double equal sign, or " == " means "equal", which is used to check something. While a single equal sign, or " = " is to assign data types. As a newbie myself, I made the same mistake thinking that " = " means equal to.
actually you can use semicolons in Python as well... below example of working code:
if True: a = 1; b = 2; c = 3
print(a, b, c)
...but nobody code this way (maybe except former C# devs) as lowering readability
he mentioned that in 8:46
These are really good. He should really do tutorials on neural networks at some point. I feel like he'd be able to explain it well.
It just occurred to me that my comment is a bit absurd. Not unrealistic, but absurd. Here's an analogy to make my point:
Kind person: Makes videos online about basic electronic circuits. Resistors, Voltage, etc.
Me: Please teach us how to make integrated circuits.
