Python Basics

Python is a great programming language. It’s open source, flexible, and – best of all – free. After receiving questions on getting started with Python, I’ve decided to create a few video tutorials on the Python Basics. These are not perfect videos, and any feedback on how to make them better would be greatly appreciated. Note, these videos also supplement the lectures for my structural dynamics course, so some of the content may be directly related to teaching students.

Here’s the first video set: Introduction to lists, numpy arrays, and dictionaries. They each have their own syntax and properties, but they can be easily confused (why do [], (), {} mean different things?!!), particularly for the Matlab programmer who is a Python beginner.

Part 1: Lists

Part 2: Numpy arrays

Part 3: dictionaries
