WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.690 --> 00:00:03.690 Hi guys and welcome to your very first lecture. 2 00:00:03.690 --> 00:00:05.280 In this lecture, we're going to be setting up 3 00:00:05.280 --> 00:00:07.160 our Cloud coding environment 4 00:00:07.160 --> 00:00:09.780 so that you don't have to instal a bunch of stuff 5 00:00:09.780 --> 00:00:12.160 just as you're getting started. 6 00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:14.950 Repl.it is the editor we're going to be using, 7 00:00:14.950 --> 00:00:17.253 and it's really powerful and really flexible. 8 00:00:18.540 --> 00:00:22.793 To get started, come to repl.it and create an account. 9 00:00:24.300 --> 00:00:26.430 Once you have logged in to repl.it, 10 00:00:26.430 --> 00:00:29.150 you'll se something more or less like this. 11 00:00:29.150 --> 00:00:31.380 At the top right you'll have a button 12 00:00:31.380 --> 00:00:33.040 to great a new repl, 13 00:00:33.040 --> 00:00:35.800 as well as your repls which should be empty for now, 14 00:00:35.800 --> 00:00:38.140 languages, and your profile. 15 00:00:38.140 --> 00:00:40.273 We're gonna click on new repl. 16 00:00:41.240 --> 00:00:43.570 Here, we're going to select Python. 17 00:00:43.570 --> 00:00:45.770 Notice that there's a bunch of different Pythons, 18 00:00:45.770 --> 00:00:47.930 including an older version of Python, 19 00:00:47.930 --> 00:00:50.140 as well as other frameworks and things like that. 20 00:00:50.140 --> 00:00:53.020 We're interested in just normal Python. 21 00:00:53.020 --> 00:00:55.970 This is going to create a new editor for you 22 00:00:55.970 --> 00:00:59.760 that uses Python three and it's going to be 23 00:00:59.760 --> 00:01:01.520 what we'll use throughout the entire course. 24 00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:03.690 You can give it a name and you can give it a description 25 00:01:03.690 --> 00:01:06.120 so you remember what it's about later on 26 00:01:06.120 --> 00:01:08.500 when you see it in your profile. 27 00:01:08.500 --> 00:01:12.470 When you create your repl, you'll see something like this. 28 00:01:12.470 --> 00:01:14.810 You've got your files on the left, 29 00:01:14.810 --> 00:01:17.390 you've got your code here in the middle, 30 00:01:17.390 --> 00:01:20.623 and then you've got the output of your code on the right. 31 00:01:21.600 --> 00:01:23.230 For now we're not going to be using files, 32 00:01:23.230 --> 00:01:25.780 so you can click this little icon to close it down. 33 00:01:26.810 --> 00:01:27.920 By clicking at the top, 34 00:01:27.920 --> 00:01:29.950 you can edit the name and the description 35 00:01:29.950 --> 00:01:31.900 if you didn't do so before. 36 00:01:31.900 --> 00:01:33.360 And whenever we type some code, 37 00:01:33.360 --> 00:01:35.990 you can then press the green button to run it 38 00:01:35.990 --> 00:01:39.460 and then you'll see any output of the code on the right. 39 00:01:39.460 --> 00:01:41.390 One of the great things about repl.it 40 00:01:41.390 --> 00:01:45.270 is that you can share your editor with someone else. 41 00:01:45.270 --> 00:01:46.800 So if you ever have any problems 42 00:01:46.800 --> 00:01:48.030 as you go through the course, 43 00:01:48.030 --> 00:01:51.260 you can create a new topic in the course Q and A, 44 00:01:51.260 --> 00:01:53.340 give us a description of the problem 45 00:01:53.340 --> 00:01:55.010 and what you're trying to achieve, 46 00:01:55.010 --> 00:01:58.890 and then also paste in this link that you get here. 47 00:01:58.890 --> 00:02:01.973 Then we will be able to see your code as you see it. 48 00:02:03.150 --> 00:02:05.750 When you do that though, remember to not change your code 49 00:02:05.750 --> 00:02:07.280 after you've shared it with us, 50 00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:10.240 otherwise your Q and A and the code that we see 51 00:02:10.240 --> 00:02:13.000 will no longer be in sync. 52 00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:15.570 Every time you start a new lecture of this course, 53 00:02:15.570 --> 00:02:18.730 I recommend you create a new repl for it. 54 00:02:18.730 --> 00:02:19.860 That's it for this video. 55 00:02:19.860 --> 00:02:21.070 Now that you're all set up, 56 00:02:21.070 --> 00:02:22.830 let's get started learning Python. 57 00:02:22.830 --> 00:02:24.280 I'll see you in the next one!
