00:00:00,276 --> 00:00:01,818
- [Instructor] Hi and welcome back.

2
00:00:01,818 --> 00:00:05,152
This was the first coding
exercise in the course

3
00:00:05,152 --> 00:00:08,911
and I've made it
reasonably simple, I hope.

4
00:00:08,911 --> 00:00:10,954
The instructions are twofold.

5
00:00:10,954 --> 00:00:13,684
First, create two variables,

6
00:00:13,684 --> 00:00:16,517
which must be called var1 and var2

7
00:00:17,383 --> 00:00:20,685
and they both have to have the same value,

8
00:00:20,685 --> 00:00:22,251
and the second part of the exercise

9
00:00:22,251 --> 00:00:25,847
is to create two variables
called num1 and num2,

10
00:00:25,847 --> 00:00:28,496
that multiply together to give 16.

11
00:00:28,496 --> 00:00:31,089
So these two must be numbers.

12
00:00:31,089 --> 00:00:33,648
Okay, so how do we create variables?

13
00:00:33,648 --> 00:00:35,985
Well, we've looked at this just now

14
00:00:35,985 --> 00:00:39,922
and we know to create a variable,
we have to type the name,

15
00:00:39,922 --> 00:00:42,477
equals and the value.

16
00:00:42,477 --> 00:00:45,571
So to create these two
variables, var1 and var2,

17
00:00:45,571 --> 00:00:49,621
we're just going to do var1, equals

18
00:00:49,621 --> 00:00:53,852
and then we can put
anything we want such as

19
00:00:53,852 --> 00:00:56,788
"hi "

20
00:00:56,788 --> 00:01:00,955
and var2 which must have the same value.

21
00:01:02,252 --> 00:01:05,025
So it also equals hi.

22
00:01:05,025 --> 00:01:09,791
So that would be the first
part of the exercise done.

23
00:01:09,791 --> 00:01:11,658
Now, the second part,

24
00:01:11,658 --> 00:01:14,148
we have to create two
variables, num1 and num2

25
00:01:14,148 --> 00:01:16,789
that multiply together to give 16.

26
00:01:16,789 --> 00:01:19,801
So, num1 is gonna be four

27
00:01:19,801 --> 00:01:21,801
and num2 is gonna be....

28
00:01:23,255 --> 00:01:24,088
What?

29
00:01:26,047 --> 00:01:29,318
Four too. So four by four is 16

30
00:01:29,318 --> 00:01:32,946
and then we can press the
green button, Check Solution.

31
00:01:32,946 --> 00:01:35,466
And that should give us that all is good.

32
00:01:35,466 --> 00:01:38,046
And I did, it says Well done,
your solution is correct.

33
00:01:38,046 --> 00:01:40,287
So hopefully this makes sense

34
00:01:40,287 --> 00:01:42,829
and this is the first coding exercise.

35
00:01:42,829 --> 00:01:44,972
Instead of num1 being
four and num2 being four,

36
00:01:44,972 --> 00:01:46,812
you could do eight and two for example,

37
00:01:46,812 --> 00:01:49,769
and var1 and var2 can have the same value.

38
00:01:49,769 --> 00:01:50,927
It doesn't matter what it is,

39
00:01:50,927 --> 00:01:55,528
it can be anything as long as
it's naturally a valid python.

40
00:01:55,528 --> 00:01:57,376
So that's everything for this video,

41
00:01:57,376 --> 00:01:59,793
I'll see you on the next one.
