Btw adding a semicolon at the end of a line doesn't throw an error in python. Because semicolon is used to put two statements in 1 line in python. And an empty statement doesn't throw an error.
Teaching programming is incredibly difficult because it is entirely up to that person to be able to actually think in that way and learn how to troubleshoot their own problems. When learning programming it is 10% lectures/mentors and 90% actually fucking practicing and utilizing it in your free time and finding new ways to use it. It is also very much a rolling stone situation where once you get it rolling you'll start gaining knowledge like crazy but if you don't finish the early stuff it'll feel like trying to push a mountain.

@@lct1196 There was no goal when he started so every question he asked made lily confused because she didn't know what to do with it. For example last times he started by saying "we are making a calculator to do this and that, here's the basic example code, you stitch it together and make it work" "Great job Jerry, now the people want to choose if they want to + - / *, here's an if statement, go for it!" That is what sepparates a good teacher and a bad teacher when i comes to coding. Set a goal, gradually show a little example code, make the student understand the code and while assisting them make them logically stitch it together for the purpose of the goal (making a calculator). This time he showed how a file get saved and read in py, but with no goal lily couldn't understand where any of it was going and she couldn't make the logical deduction as to why she needs it or what to do with it. Only towards the end (after about 40 mins 0.0) they had now a goal but lily still did not understand what it was since michael still didn't explain it correctly. the goal was: {have/save values in a file, index them line by line, change the value of a line the user chooses and save it or print it out from the file} I have coding knowledge and I understood where it was going, but not having that knowledge leaves you blind to the steps or direction you need to go to.
Because Michael tricked her Michael says at 29:25 "If index 1 is zero" which is WRONG. Index 0 is one, not the other way around. If index 1 is 0 like Michael said then index 3 is 2 and Lily was right
@@WatchLearnSee the way he explained it is correct when explaining to someone who starts counting at 1. index 1 is the first entry in their mind not index 0 so you have to get them to associate the first index with zero not 1, to do that you have to redfine their definition of index 1 (which again is what they perceive as the first index), you cant just cold turkey them into "yeah so you have to count from 0" This is why coders make shitty teachers, we literally forget what its like to think incorrectly Its also important to do it this way because if you simply say "yeah it starts at 0" without first understanding that indexes are not equal to their position in the element list and are a referential system then when you get into negative indexing the entire thing falls apart.

@@Tridentus Yeahh maybe it’s a bit of frustration? Honestly I find it really hard to be patient about guiding others how to write codes so I admire people who can patiently sit down and do that 😅😂
Actually I can see how clearly he hasn't. He's using pretty bad practices and he has no patience. He tries really hard to be patient but you can see he hasn't built the actual natural patient you get from teaching either programming or anything really.
@@unixtreme Yeah my teacher had no patience and taught in a similar way it was very effective so you might want to check yourself before you wreck yourself
Programming is inherently very abstract so it is naturally super hard to teach it, so I’d say given this was all impromptu teaching, Michael did a pretty good job. But then if an actual teacher with prepared material were to teach coding like this, let’s just say I would not be impressed
So Lily’s answer “3” is wrong but her reasoning is actually not bad. If you think indexing as a function she just thought of the inverse instead. Think about it this way, the index function looks like this: n(i)=i+1 which means that if you enter the index i you get the i+1th element in the list. This function has an inverse, namely i(n)=n-1, which means that if you want the nth element you have to input the n-1 as an index. Lily confused these two, if you input 3 you get 2.
How come nobody hear Michael say "Index 1 is 0"???? This is the reason she got it wrong!!! Michael got it wrong first!!! If index 1 is 0 then index 2 is 1 then index 3 is 2. As simple as that. She got it wrong because she was taught it wrong. Michael wanted to say "Index of 0 is 1". That's what she means by the swapping thing This is bothering me more than it should lol. I have nothing against Michael obvs, he made a mistake, everyone does. But I know what she felt like feeling she was dumb and I sympathise. The reason she then got even more confused was probably because she became too distressed to remember what Michael said. And the fact that apparently I'm the only one actually hearing Michael's wrong explanation makes me confused
@@WatchLearnSee Even though Michae said it wrong lily still knew what he meant (0=1, 1=2 etc). Lily just got confused by the question. She was asked to give the second index number where 0 =1, but she understood give index number 2 which is 3.
ngl michael is a bang arse teacher, im seeing my uni professors struggling to even teach what object oriented programming is to some students but he is doing a banger of a job.
This is a type of coding tutorial I would actually watch. Not only is he fucking good at it. And patronization doesn't feel like it's directed to you lol
I'm gonna take a gander and say she was referring to indexes/vectors. In which case, in a specific scenario, 2 IS 3, and 1 is 2. Here's why. If you made a vector with 3 parts, 1, 2, and 3, the ASSIGNMENT for each one is 0, 1, and 2. So if you used the code to print position 2, its gonna read 3. So in that scenario, 0 = 1, 1 = 2, and 2 = 3.
@@caughtinthewebosu You do realise that she doesn't know that exists and she just flipped the indexes cause she has no idea what she is doing and didn't I explain that she thought that if 2 = 3 than 3 = 2 and got confused.
One thing mykull, i noticed that lily is a visual learner. she works with a lot of art so it seems like she grasps concepts better if you try to draw it up for her that trying to explain with words. Very entertaining to watch and I learned something too!
True, but i think Java would be a lot easier for lily just for the fact that you have to specify variable types, int x = 10 String name = "Lily", that way she does not get confused about what is what.
This one is the one that taught me Python works with files and now I’ve made my first cool thing - an image decoder to get a list of hex codes from an input image and write it to a file
I was watching this while I was on online class, my teacher just blasted sad music all of the sudden (leaves by Ben&Ben) while I was at around 32:05 and now it sounds like one of them died LULW
My friend was in the very situation you're describing and I had to tutor her. She's much better at math than I am but had a super hard time learning programming. Additionally they made her learn C instead of i.e. Python which I found weird.
@@JohnSmith-ox3gy Yeah, their final assignment was to make a CLI program for managing a library. In pure C. No wonder she ended up hating programming - which makes me sad.
index 0 is the 1st item, index 1 is the 2nd item, etc . If you start counting from 0 (for index), you add 1 to the index to get the number that we normally use when counting from 1. Off by 1 errors are common in programming because of that added 0 element. So when Michael asked what is the index of the 2nd item, Lily added 1 instead of subtracting it - like she went the other way, going from index to number instead of number to index... swapping the names/direction. 3 was always an option. Michael responded like she just said "math.pi"
I feel like she needed to see a lot more of what things looked like over each iteration through the loop. Think he kinda jumped the gun and was confusing her with object/class jargon """ I hope she doesn't get too down on herself - she's getting better with each session
It’s really hard to explain this stuff to a beginner, because they do not think in code structures yes, but also really appreciate how Lily keeps trying to get it! I just expected her to snap or get frustrated every second, because I am so used to it when I am explaining things to people. Michael could try explaining it in less abstract terms, like each variable is a little box you can throw data in. And lists have a certain number of these boxes, they are numbered, and if you want the data from a certain box, just write the name of the list and then the number of the box in brackets. You feed functions input data and it generates new output data or it does something with the input data. Like print eats strings, it doesn’t produce anything, but it shows the input on the screen. Split is a function that only strings have. So you address your string, for example by it’s name, put a little dot, with tells it to use one of its functions, name the faction (split) and the data it eats is the symbol where it is supposed to split/cut the original string. Then it produces/poops out a list with as many string pieces that were created by cutting the original string.
Michael's reaction to lily asking if it's possible to make a personality test was so relatable. Beginners often ask about projects that are just wayyy outside of their scope sometimes.
It’s a good beginner project. You can make anything if you cut down on the idea and make it simpler. Make it a command line program and have it ask questions and addition or subtract from a score depending on if they answered positively or negatively. For example, have a score value of 5 and calculate the result then give them a message depending on their final score. “Do you easily get angry?” Y: -1 “Are you generally happy in life?” N: -1 Score result: 3 Get the message for this score, and print.
at 29:25 it somewhat bothered me that Michael switched up his words and lily's train of thought was right. Michael says "index of one is zero" instead of "index of zero is one" and it leads into 10 minutes of confusion because Lily cant justify her conclusion which was 100% correct and the only reason it isn't is she was taught wrong
True but I believe he was trying to say index of the first element is 0, but then you would bring up another term and I guess it's confusing enough :/ Also I feel like alot of this is just lily messing around (possibly for content)
@@williamTjS Yeah he missed a step. He should have gone through the list highlighting each item in turn and said "so what index is this one?", then said "ok so how do you call the second item?".
33:02 it's not that hard. She remembered that the one number is 1 higher than the other one. She needed the second element. Incremented it by one. Three. She "swapped" which number she had to increment
I think she is a "visual type". And for her it's easier to understand if she can see the data transformation. I mean print(res) after every step so she can see the difference. Or to use nice visual debugger with breakpoints.
Well, the best tip is to come up with an idea of what to write first. Tic tac toe, for example. Secondly, that's not a website. They are using Visual Studio Code. But in my experience PyCharm is superior. It is way more powerful, even if slightly more performance-hungry and slightly more confusing for a beginner. There are Getting Started guides on both though. And you don't have to buy it - Community Edition has all you'll ever need.

If index 1 is 0 like Michael said then index 3 is 2 and Lily was right
@@WatchLearnSee the way he explained it is correct when explaining to someone who starts counting at 1.
index 1 is the first entry in their mind not index 0 so you have to get them to associate the first index with zero not 1, to do that you have to redfine their definition of index 1 (which again is what they perceive as the first index), you cant just cold turkey them into "yeah so you have to count from 0"
This is why coders make shitty teachers, we literally forget what its like to think incorrectly
Its also important to do it this way because if you simply say "yeah it starts at 0" without first understanding that indexes are not equal to their position in the element list and are a referential system then when you get into negative indexing the entire thing falls apart.

and the index 0 points at the 1st element of the list

Think about it this way, the index function looks like this:
n(i)=i+1 which means that if you enter the index i you get the i+1th element in the list. This function has an inverse, namely i(n)=n-1, which means that if you want the nth element you have to input the n-1 as an index. Lily confused these two, if you input 3 you get 2.
How come nobody hear Michael say "Index 1 is 0"???? This is the reason she got it wrong!!! Michael got it wrong first!!!
If index 1 is 0 then index 2 is 1 then index 3 is 2. As simple as that. She got it wrong because she was taught it wrong.
Michael wanted to say "Index of 0 is 1". That's what she means by the swapping thing
This is bothering me more than it should lol. I have nothing against Michael obvs, he made a mistake, everyone does. But I know what she felt like feeling she was dumb and I sympathise. The reason she then got even more confused was probably because she became too distressed to remember what Michael said.
And the fact that apparently I'm the only one actually hearing Michael's wrong explanation makes me confused
Godzilla had a fucking stroke reading this and died
@@WatchLearnSee holy shit you are right. I didnt catch that either
@@WatchLearnSee Even though Michae said it wrong lily still knew what he meant (0=1, 1=2 etc). Lily just got confused by the question. She was asked to give the second index number where 0 =1, but she understood give index number 2 which is 3.
@@WatchLearnSee i guess most people take 0 being first in the array for granted so small things like that fly under the radar
They're at their cutest when they're together.
It melts my deep dark empty void.
my screen refresh rate, cant even keep up with Lily's type speed
Underrated
I have probably have 200 hours of straight python coding and I still look things up every 5 minutes
200 hour of programming, 150 of stackoverflow.
All good coders still use Stack Overflow and other coding sites for help.
@@Stepqen because they only have 2 hours to solve the problem of their task
the way michael teaches is super patient and gentle, and most importantly very understandable.
ngl michael is a bang arse teacher, im seeing my uni professors struggling to even teach what object oriented programming is to some students but he is doing a banger of a job.
I mean oriented programming is a bit more complicated to understand that loops and basic functions lol
(9:18)
Micheal: _Explains code_
Lily: "It looks like a face!"
’w’
Funny ^^
This is a type of coding tutorial I would actually watch. Not only is he fucking good at it. And patronization doesn't feel like it's directed to you lol
This was sooooo helpful, i've tried for so long and its this simple to edit files. Thx man
this series inspired me to learn python and i have coded a blackjack gama already
GUI or console?
@@abhiranjansinha5565 I'd guess it'd be a console game
Aren’t you supposed to be playing for RCB
Now do it in assembler.
This is actually helping me, thx
"we're talking about our feelings"
...
**"NOOOO"**
"Now that we have an understanding of the basic concepts of python, I'd like you to import scikit-learn"
i swear this video has helped me a lot to love coding again
oooh she thaught that if 1 = 2 then 2 = 1 with that logic 3 = 2
This us a great explanation of her ramblings
OHHHH now that you typed it out I get it
I'm gonna take a gander and say she was referring to indexes/vectors. In which case, in a specific scenario, 2 IS 3, and 1 is 2. Here's why. If you made a vector with 3 parts, 1, 2, and 3, the ASSIGNMENT for each one is 0, 1, and 2. So if you used the code to print position 2, its gonna read 3. So in that scenario, 0 = 1, 1 = 2, and 2 = 3.
@@caughtinthewebosu You do realise that she doesn't know that exists and she just flipped the indexes cause she has no idea what she is doing and didn't I explain that she thought that if 2 = 3 than 3 = 2 and got confused.
9:15 when a C programmer uses Python for the first time
Hahah
i love michael and more each day
micjaels actually a very good teacher. ive never even looked at python before but i was understanding everything pretty easily
One thing mykull, i noticed that lily is a visual learner. she works with a lot of art so it seems like she grasps concepts better if you try to draw it up for her that trying to explain with words. Very entertaining to watch and I learned something too!
I love the fact that in java this would take 4x the amount of code they did yet it would still be a bit faster... damn python is so simple
Yeah. Python for lazy ppl
True, but i think Java would be a lot easier for lily just for the fact that you have to specify variable types, int x = 10 String name = "Lily", that way she does not get confused about what is what.
@@xyelashe No way. Just imagine inputting. Printing has a long statement. Classes and objects have to be told
@@amritnalam9994 C# would be better for her, easy outputing, easy reading, data types
@@StarzzDrak VIsual basic is the best for new ppl to learn but it is not capable of the things other advanced languages can do
This one is the one that taught me Python works with files and now I’ve made my first cool thing - an image decoder to get a list of hex codes from an input image and write it to a file
that's what I like about them. they're both an artist
I was watching this while I was on online class, my teacher just blasted sad music all of the sudden (leaves by Ben&Ben) while I was at around 32:05 and now it sounds like one of them died LULW
Noir Illustra yep
Wait no! They’re a band with two of them being the lead singers lol
What A Cool Teacher Ours Just Mad at Everyone Filipino H E R E
This just reminds me of first year math students who were forced to take CS I and there incredible struggle
My friend was in the very situation you're describing and I had to tutor her. She's much better at math than I am but had a super hard time learning programming. Additionally they made her learn C instead of i.e. Python which I found weird.
@@duddie4171
Oh no, pure C? Not C# or even C++?
@@JohnSmith-ox3gy Yeah, their final assignment was to make a CLI program for managing a library. In pure C. No wonder she ended up hating programming - which makes me sad.
@@duddie4171 C is good for learning programmation. It teaches you how it actually works
@@acc373r4t0r She's a math undergraduate, she shouldn't need to know about double pointers or what a stack overflow is.
i'm just starting to learn how to code in python and this is actually helping me out a bit
index 0 is the 1st item, index 1 is the 2nd item, etc . If you start counting from 0 (for index), you add 1 to the index to get the number that we normally use when counting from 1. Off by 1 errors are common in programming because of that added 0 element. So when Michael asked what is the index of the 2nd item, Lily added 1 instead of subtracting it - like she went the other way, going from index to number instead of number to index... swapping the names/direction. 3 was always an option. Michael responded like she just said "math.pi"
I feel like she needed to see a lot more of what things looked like over each iteration through the loop. Think he kinda jumped the gun and was confusing her with object/class jargon """ I hope she doesn't get too down on herself - she's getting better with each session
Michael needs to make a c++ or python course and I would love to watch it all
It’s really hard to explain this stuff to a beginner, because they do not think in code structures yes, but also really appreciate how Lily keeps trying to get it! I just expected her to snap or get frustrated every second, because I am so used to it when I am explaining things to people. Michael could try explaining it in less abstract terms, like each variable is a little box you can throw data in. And lists have a certain number of these boxes, they are numbered, and if you want the data from a certain box, just write the name of the list and then the number of the box in brackets. You feed functions input data and it generates new output data or it does something with the input data. Like print eats strings, it doesn’t produce anything, but it shows the input on the screen. Split is a function that only strings have. So you address your string, for example by it’s name, put a little dot, with tells it to use one of its functions, name the faction (split) and the data it eats is the symbol where it is supposed to split/cut the original string. Then it produces/poops out a list with as many string pieces that were created by cutting the original string.
Please make more coding content. This stuff is amazing.
I’m low key following along cuz I’m tryna learn code
Why am I learning more from this video than my actual A level Computing class.
then your prof is probably just 4 raccoons in a trenchcoat
I read that as michael reeves touches lilypichu and I was not surprised lol
you two are just adorable lol
"i wanna learn how to make a personality test"
Michael's reaction to lily asking if it's possible to make a personality test was so relatable. Beginners often ask about projects that are just wayyy outside of their scope sometimes.
It’s a good beginner project. You can make anything if you cut down on the idea and make it simpler.
Make it a command line program and have it ask questions and addition or subtract from a score depending on if they answered positively or negatively.
For example, have a score value of 5 and calculate the result then give them a message depending on their final score.
“Do you easily get angry?”
Y: -1
“Are you generally happy in life?”
N: -1
Score result: 3
Get the message for this score, and print.
you guys are too much! the first video I've seen and you guys are awesome to me!! subscribed!
Micheal is just such a good, patient teacher
at 29:25 it somewhat bothered me that Michael switched up his words and lily's train of thought was right. Michael says "index of one is zero" instead of "index of zero is one" and it leads into 10 minutes of confusion because Lily cant justify her conclusion which was 100% correct and the only reason it isn't is she was taught wrong
True but I believe he was trying to say index of the first element is 0, but then you would bring up another term and I guess it's confusing enough :/
Also I feel like alot of this is just lily messing around (possibly for content)
@@williamTjS Yeah he missed a step. He should have gone through the list highlighting each item in turn and said "so what index is this one?", then said "ok so how do you call the second item?".
Dude, Michael is really good at explaining, he's super clear
With someone learning highschool coding, he isn’t actually bad at teaching and he’s going over the stuff teachers normally go over
He is actually a very good teacher.
20:33 "no."
33:02
it's not that hard.
She remembered that the one number is 1 higher than the other one.
She needed the second element. Incremented it by one. Three.
She "swapped" which number she had to increment
This actually helped me learn code I was struggling with lmao
Ah, finally the long-awaited how to code series is back.
bruh! she types so fricking fast! how!
Her fingers are augmented.
Harry Potter is teaching a girl how to code.. "at the end of the day it's just a string.. right?"
no. it's magic.
Oh my gosh, you guys remind me back in the days when I started coding 🤞
I just remember crying
actually learned something veru useful. I should watch more of michael
Mikull just freakin saved me from failing Python test rn 😂
29:30 when you ask someone which JoJo part you should watch first
Michael, thank you for teaching me how to code
I like how I'm learning Python while watching these.
Michael is so good at explaining I can't 😤
Quirky coder girl and boy?!?!?
i never thought im gonna learn python with lilypichu streams
I've been working with c++ for my college course, and my god, this looks lovely
Should have made a short drawing:
words=["first", "second", "third"]
words[0] is first
third is words[2].
I think she is a "visual type". And for her it's easier to understand if she can see the data transformation. I mean print(res) after every step so she can see the difference.
Or to use nice visual debugger with breakpoints.
I love being able to understand everything here
As someone wanting to learn python, this is unbelievably helpful.
Zanroff a good app for learning the basics is sololearn.
Thank you for inspiring me learn python! Do you have any tips or things to use for practice? And what site are they using to type can someone tell me?
They’re using a program called vscode
Well, the best tip is to come up with an idea of what to write first. Tic tac toe, for example.
Secondly, that's not a website. They are using Visual Studio Code. But in my experience PyCharm is superior. It is way more powerful, even if slightly more performance-hungry and slightly more confusing for a beginner. There are Getting Started guides on both though. And you don't have to buy it - Community Edition has all you'll ever need.
I highly recommend checking out automatetheboringstuff. Google it, there are many great software ideas which will definitely help you getting started.
once you have the basics down, always keep making projects! they dont have to be complex ones either, as long as you are practicing what youve learned
I have a first project idea! Dice. It was my first python project and now I'm ripping-off some parts of dank memer!
I wish these vids were about when i was doing my computer sci gcse, would have made it so much easier.
this is soo panful but simultaneously beautiful to watch 🤣
Thanks, for teaching me some coding at the same time
You will probably not see this but I really like your videos they make me laugh every time thanks for what you do
If you’re going to thank anyone thank Lilly and Micheal not some random dude who just ripped a vod and did nothing with it.
I actually didn't think people would have trouble learning to code if they really want to before watching this vid.
lol just kidding. Lili doesn't really want to learn this lol.
I'm so envious she has the privilege of getting taught BY MICHAEL REEVES
its so cute when she tries to guess coding stuff ;w; ;w; ;w;
If Michael was a school teacher i would listen to him
