[Draenix572]

@PivotLoverGuy

Yeah, here in britain we call them brackets, but some people say parenthesis

[kinggabe314]

its not working oh well

[JACK019930]

@LancePoint9 and @gabriellagorey1 That's what happened to mine but I then realised I had the newer version of Python to the one in the video... instead of

print "hello."

I put

print ("hello.")

and it worked :D Hope it helped :D

btw I have Python version 3.1.4

[LancePoint9]

I'm python and following your instructions exactly, I keep getting syntax errors?

[gabriellagorey1]

@LancePoint9 Same here. I'm doing everything you're doing as well...=/ Help please!

[cardriver222]

This tutorial is awesome!!

[omg99wcftw]

Thetruth odds are is it is required to show that that is two words but the same variable... Stupid people shouldn't code (of course theirs also the Less obvious idea which is "he just wanted too" but normally it's the former.)

[TheTruthUnraveller]

At 5:00, why do you put an underscore between how and many?( how_many)?

please help.

[iphoneAndy]

brilliant thanks

[krazyj63]

Hell yeah float is awsome, it is my new savior

[Akralaa]

where did you download python????

[MrCampollo]

i need python exactly like this i need ver 2.7.1 because i have homework for tomorrow! please where i can download this? ive found many 2.7.1 but they dont look like this one i cant use the other one :S i need this one

[HaloMan319]

Wheeere is part 2!!!1!!!one!!1!!1one!

[iAppTime]

After 5 minutes of Python I was able to create this:

varintA = int(raw_input("Integer A "))

varintB = int(raw_input("Integer B "))

print varintA * varintB

Python is pretty easy to learn indeed :)

[grayfore]

So what does this all do? I'm going to take a programming elective my sophomore year, and I understand that Python can be used to make programs, but how do the phrases you used incorporate themselves in, say, a webpage?

[miseman1]

can you make more plese i am very entrested of your vids pls make more!!

tnx for this vid!

sub! and 5/10000000000

[JordsterMovies]

Thanks for the intro.

The variable name is variablename, not "hello." You should be clear - variable called variablename contains the value hello... Also, good coding practice says you should always capitalize the first letter of any words after the first ... so variableName. Sorry for being picky! Thanks for the vid.

[MrFaithFlicks]

cannot hear you too well

[rryanrreed]

I'm assuming you are using an earlier version than I am. I am watching your vids and practicing on 3.1 and "raw_input" doesnt work, but if I just put "input" it does.

[vagobig]

Good tutorial!!

[marioanthony81]

--**Please Note***--

The Version of Python used in this tutorial is not the newest one. The Syntax may be very different from the newest version.

[dogdutyascetic]

Using 3.1.2 here and beware that most of the commands discussed here have different syntax. For instance, print has the syntax print('text') , and there is no raw_input command. So this might be a bit misleading for beginners with the current version installed.

[bowd19]

dude u never made a number 2?

[Grkgermn333]

I saw the video, but I didnt get what you do with raw_input, int(raw_input), and float(raw_input). You just ask a question and answer it. Thats it? Can maybe the computer answer your questions if you did that before?

[b14789632541]

Can you translate yours videos to spain?

I'm from Spain and I don't understand anything

[b14789632541]

Can you translate yours videos to spain?

I'm from Spain and I don't understand anything

[onlymassiss]

i'm kinda noob..... i don't find pyhton.exe!!! just exe's for cmd

[cht9178]

nice video dude

[lwierd]

@lwierd I just noticed what a f'king idiot I am...

[carl6188]

I am guessing, but raw_input does not work in python version 3.1.1 and neither do a lot of the commands that you are using in your earlier version of Python.

[JokerJester92]

nice 1 mate

great if u can make more tutorial like this :p

[iHateMyLifeGr]

another question...... :)

i have python 2.6.2

and it appears you have 1.1.3

is what you do applies on 2.6.2??

and thanks for the awesome tutorial

[skf1n]

Actually he has Python 2.4.3. 1.1.3 is just the version of python idle.

[iHateMyLifeGr]

Hello dudes, i just wanted to ask is python the best language to learn as a start to programming??

[xrtze]

@iHateMyLifeGr Might be. But you should have a lool at turbopascal, to get into the logics of programming. But i, for mine started with java :D

[aliancemd]

U don't need raw_input for input, that's to add something in a Table. U can just write input("text") or input()... and u can print 'test' or print "text" or print('text')... they all we work.

[BadOmen02]

@aliancemd It can be good to know this: strMyNumber=raw_input('Enter 5+5')

and then print strMyNumber, it will print 5+5 but if you use input('Enter 5+5'') it will give you 10...

[gonzalezluis78]

looking for number 2

[goompapa]

This was good, where is #2?

[goompapa]

Thanks heaps for going to the trouble of helping me sink my teeth into python...

[01ttouch]

@jameswx09 me two (however i'm on second day of python...)

[jameswx09]

you have to download it and then click start then all programs and find python

[householdhackerfan1]

cant find python shell....

[GNSstudios]

aww man lol make more python tutorials.

[ManiacBrosStudios]

My mic broke and I'm looking for a good high quality one.

[a2zhandi]

Great tut. However, I've been reading python for quite some time. I kind of get it but I have several off the wall kinda questions. Only one concerning this tut.

Can you briefly describe why one would want to 'print' something they've just typed? I mean when you type it isn't it already printed?

I know there's an angle for this but I can only see straight currently ;) Thanks

[GNSstudios]

probably because you can use the "print" in some sort of function for a future program you might make. I don't have much experience in programming but to me this seems like the logical answer, because when you writing the code for longer programs the user won't be able to see the actual code, but only the output of it.

[a2zhandi]

Thanks

[GNSstudios]

np ^.^

[XMSpaintX]

You use it for when you want text to show up when a particular condition is met.

Like say a text adventure game that relies on the printed text to advance the story.

[Hax138]

Thank you, this helped me greatly to getting started. I took 3 pages of notes :D Looking forward to your other videos.

[ManiacBrosStudios]

No problem, if you want you can subscribe and leave suggestions for new tutorials.

Thanks for viewing

[XaivierProductions]

Umm Mine doesent work it says Raw_Imput is not defined

[ManiacBrosStudios]

Double check to make sure you have spelled it correctly, and that it is not running on to any other words. raw_input should work, never had a problem with it, other than a typo or something.

[smergibblegibberish]

I like Decimal(raw_input("")) instead of float because float is a bit to unreliable.

[ManiacBrosStudios]

Yea, that's the one I forgot to include, but this is just the basics.

[access08]

Help!! My phyton always ends up running in cmd.exe.. i cant use it with the one on your demonstration.. im using phyton 2.5.4.. please reply.. Tnx..

[ManiacBrosStudios]

Are you using idle? Make sure you are clicking on IDLE (Python GUI)

[buggyiscool]

hey if tht doesnt work i just go to python\tools\scripts and then right click any script then click edit with IDLE...it opens it in the shell

[ajg366]

@access08 are you double clicking your file? Run it from IDLE or make a new file and save it as a '.py' and run it.
