Chris Piech, professor of computer science at Stanford University, answers the internet’s burning questions about coding. Do you need to know math to be good at coding? How many computer languages are there? Are programming and coding the same thing? How do you code A.I.? What is the meaning of the “404” error? Chris answers all these questions and much more!

In my country there is program named com logo wich all children in school learn. It has a turtle wich can do few things :put down or pick up pencile, turn x°, or go forward backward, go left or right.
Basic code is like
Penciledown;forward100;left100;backward100;right100;pencileup
Then there is ism witch means repeat.
Pencildown;turnright45°;ism30(forward100;turnright90°;forward100;turnleft90°)
And it makes a zigzag.

Thank you for not saying "Raspberry Pi is a 35$ computer".

C++ ... really? ... what about Rust?

The ONE time they could actually call an episode Tech Support , they didn't

I love this guy, his whole way of being is really warm. Like a kind hug.
@jarnMod February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
Coding makes you better at math and lazier at calculation. What do you mean I can't do 78*23? I can get python to do it.

C# programmers punching the air rn

How lucky are his students😍
@Ojas-Pandey February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
Well I also have some list of questions that are as follows:-

1. Why did computer only understand 1s and 0s not English or any other language like us.

2. How do we program/create a programing language(Like the first ever programming language ever)

3. Why do we need such complex programming/coding language? Why can't we just create a program/coding language which can understand normal language like English and etc

4. Why did we selected switches and not any other like buttons?

5. How did the idea of the furst computer arised.

Some question may seem silly but I am a high school student and just being curious.
@MrTheRocketmaster February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
Yeah, you need to get a whole Stanford Computer Scientist to answer questions like "what is 404", "what is front end and backend", "what is github". I mean, really? It's like if you invited Mike Tyson and had him answer things like "can people kick in boxing?" or "do I punch with my right hand or my left? Which is better?". Come on you guys.
@RobinLeGaming February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
Neither Python nor JavaScript are programming languages, they're scripting languages.

I wasn't financial free until my 40’s and I’m still in my 40’s, bought my third house already, earn on a monthly through passive income, and got 4 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone's that it doesn’t matter if you don’t have any of them right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future! Investing in the financial market is a grand choice I made.
@jadonlawrence4909 February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
Just like there is front end and back end, there is a body and a soul. Something more than we can see with our eyes.
@YourCo-workerAlbedo February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
He’s so passionate, I love it!
@VlogsJake February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
I learned more in 17 minutes about coding through this guy than I did through repeat semesters of computer engineering at my university
@lmao4982 February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
seems a little weird to use def main() for python considering you need to add a line to explicitly call it in python

the simpler version of the program just omits the def main(): line
@ettinakitten5047 February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
I've self-taught myself a bit of Excel Basic, HTML, Javascript and Creatures Agent Object Scripting (which is used by the Creatures series of video games). But I'm not really great at any of those.

I adore this man omg thank u for being in the video!
@Continentalmunkey88 February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
Google maps, coding is cartography

Oh I remember stack overflow 😂 LLMs have taken over my code searches
@IamZeus1100 February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
This guys so passionate about what he does , that’s amazing
@jarenmullen3565 February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
How is this guy not married
@coldheartcobra February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
this video was better than the harvard guy
@Fart420.69 February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
I love this dude's good vibes
@SuicideDog February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
Anyways the important thing with web design is ux/UI design. And the important thing with ux/ui design is accessibility! You don't need to code to create good accessibility designs, but you need a Front-ender who is also cunning in accessibility to make it truly accessible. It's a joint effort, and its important :)

I am watching this video after it has been suggested to me many times, and I really enjoy it!

12:56 “do you have to be good at math to code?” Coding requires little if any math but you do have to do a lot of math and applied mathematics to get a BS in Computer Science.
@Hima_san111 February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
Mans definitely a teacher at Stanford for a reason
@spaceyastronaut9467 February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
You have 200 Ok as well, but the message doesn’t usually show up
@shahzaibhassan2777 February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
Feels really cool, that I know everything he's saying 😆
@jacobclinton9849 February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
6:27 okay but he never actually called main, python doesn't automatically call it
@glebkorniyenko1084 February 12, 2024 - 3:08 am
I also learned about front end and backed when learning web programming for the first time, so it always throws me off when people use it for things like load balancers or even games.
