I've only watched this
first video, but I found it to be an outstanding first look and code walk through of a simple Python script. It's from a series of
videos by Jeff Rush which seem to be quite well done. Check it out and note how powerful a simple Python program can be. The presentation is very well done.
He does use a couple of advanced features:
- Compiled regular expressions
- A list comprehension
I'm curious to know if you found they made the example more difficult to follow, or if they were easy to understand.
