Been having a play and it looks good, although the way that variable assignment is referred to in some of the problems feels inconsistent and is sometimes confusing. In some problems you talk about the variable first and the value second, and in others the value first and variable second.
Also it really pains me to see you recommending using a for loop to count list members when there's a perfectly good len function there to do it for you. I can understand the desire to do it from a fundamentals point of view, but it feels overcomplicated in the crime mission.
Edit: Is it ok to like the video bits but hate then stylus? It feels like an actual whiteboard or something that drew less artificial (and noisy) lines would be friendlier. The narration is good :)
- vikp 12y agoIt's really hard to approach problems from the perspective of a beginner. I did some testing around using "magic" functions like len vs building intuition, and it's really important to understand how the things are working. Otherwise, you can't really generalize the concept easily. I'll look into the variable assignments more. Making content has been way harder than I imagined it would be. I think I need a better graphics tablet -- I got a cheap refurbished one, and it lags a lot.
