From The Shoulders of Giants
In this pilot series, Dr. Foland explored the format of Foundations streams and videos. The series started with a pre-recorded, edited pilot episode, then transitioned to a live-stream format for added interactivity and opportunity for questions and answers.
This series focuses on the fundamentals of the Python programming language - from the very basics, through some basic game programming. Dr. Foland discusses data structures in Python, as well as fundamental computational thinking methods such as flow-charting and designing finite state machines to describe your programs.
