Channel Title: John Philip Jones Channel Description: Video tutorials on Python programming, other Computer Science topics and mathematics. The tutorials can be viewed in a random order. However, some have been designed to view in sequence within playlists that have been organised into appropriate sections. I would welcome feedback comments on the tutorials and channel. Such feedback will be used for research into whether such videos are effective in supporting students with their studies. I would therefore be grateful if you subscribed and commented on the channel. I am particularly interested in how you have integrated the use of the videos into your studies. Please check out the supporting websites listed below. Best wishes Phil (John Philip Jones) <video> Did you hear the one about the pessimist and the optimist? Description: Joke (testing the features of Camtasia 2024) </video> <video> Demonstration of Camtasia Dynamic Backgrounds Description: Just testing the dynamic backgrounds to see how they look. </video> <video> Demonstration of Dynamic Backgrounds in Camtasia Description: Observing examples of Camtasia 2024 dynamic backgrounds. </video> <video> The Carina Nebula Description: The Carina Nebula is a vibrant star-forming region located about 7,500 light-years from Earth in the southern constellation of Carina. Known for its massive stars, including Eta Carinae, it showcases colourful gas and dust, making it a key site for studying stellar evolution. </video> <video> How to find the two's complement of a binary byte Description: The video demonstrates the process of finding the two's complement of a binary number, showcasing three unique examples and employing two separate methods. </video> <video> Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year Description: Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year </video> <video> Calling functions with positional and keyword arguments Description: In Python, functions can be called using positional and keyword arguments to enhance clarity and flexibility. </video> <video> Comparing positional and keyword arguments Description: Positional arguments are defined by their order in the function call, while keyword arguments are identified by a keyword and can be placed in any order after positional arguments. The sequence of positional arguments is crucial, as it matches the order of parameters in the function definition. Conversely, keyword arguments enhance code readability and flexibility, as they are passed by explicitly associating each argument with a corresponding parameter name. </video> <video> Python: How to read from a text file Description: In this video lesson, I demonstrate how to read the contents of a text file and display them on the Visual Display. It also shows how to open the file for reading and close the file to free up resources. </video> <video> Using Positional and Keyword arguments in a Python function call Description: In Python, a function call can include both positional and keyword arguments. Positional arguments are specified first and are identified by their position in the function definition. Keyword arguments are specified after any positional arguments and are identified by the parameter name followed by an equal sign and the value. </video> <video> Introduction to Copilot and Python Programming. Description: This demonstrates how Copilot can write a Python program, provide comments, and explain each line of code. </video> <video> Why when reading a file using Python it has to be opened and closed. Description: This video will guide you through the steps involved in opening and reading a file. Additionally, it will explain the importance of closing the file to release resources back to the operating system. </video> <video> Behemoth Black Hole Description: This computer-simulated image depicts a supermassive black hole at a galaxy's core. The central black region is the event horizon, where no light escapes. Gravity distorts space, stretching light from nearby stars. </video> <video> How to Avoid a Common Syntax Error with Python arguments Description: To avoid common syntax errors in Python, especially those related to arguments, ensure that you are using the correct number of arguments, matching the expected types, and adhering to proper syntax rules. </video> <video> How to find the one's complement of a binary byte Description: The video illustrates how to find the one's complement of a binary byte, providing three distinct examples. </video>
