‫Welcome back.
‫Let's do our first exercise.
‫And this exercise is going to be really easy for you to skip, but I do recommend that you actually
‫do it.
‫I know it's not coding, but it's important because you'll learn that teaching somebody a topic actually
‫helps you learn.
‫So this is the exercise based on the videos that you've watched.
‫How does Python work?
‫But don't think about it in your head.
‫I want you to talk to somebody.
‫I want you to teach somebody how Python works.
‫So the first thing you're going to do is go to our community, our discord community.
‫We have lots of people here.
‫We have about 1500 people online right now, plus some alumni plus some star mentors.
‫Well, there's a lot of people.
‫What I want you to do is go to the programming buddies channel if you haven't already, and find a buddy.
‫And with that buddy, whether that person is taking a python course or taking a JavaScript course,
‫it doesn't matter.
‫Just say, Hey, can I spend maybe 5 minutes teaching you how Python works and see if you can explain
‫it to them, how it works, just like you've learned.
‫And then after you've done that, I want you to go find a friend or a family member that has never done
‫programming before and see if you can explain in simple terms how Python works.
‫That is how.
‫Python gets written as source code.
‫We use this translation service called an interpreter to run this code, and then we'll spit out some
‫instruction for our machines.
‫I kind of gave away the answer, but you know what I mean.
‫I want you to practice teaching somebody this because by understanding these fundamentals, it's going
‫to help you learn more and more and understand how things work underneath the hood as we get more and
‫more advanced.
‫All right.
‫First, a little exercise.
‫It shouldn't be too hard.
‫I'll see you in the next video.
‫Bye bye.
