The Rest of the Lesson

You made it through the extremely technical stuff. Good job and don't worry if it didn't sink in.

If you did enjoy that segment, you may be interested in learning more about pure Computer Science when you complete this Nanodegree. Check out the following recommendations for continued education after this program:

• Intro to Computer Science: the course that this course samples from
• Programming Languages: more about the nitty gritty of what programming languages are
• Introduction to Algorithms: a mathematical approach to thinking about programming
• Intro to Theoretical Computer Science: explores questions like "what makes a problem hard?"

Now, enjoy the last few segments of the lesson! The example Dave uses for the rest of the lesson involves some pretty intense arithmetic. If you're a bit rusty with math, try not to focus on the details of the calculations. Instead, focus on…

• the difference between 1 and 1.0 in Python.
• the incredible things that computers can do (and their speed!)
