In plain English

This repository is a collection of sample Python programs put together by the Codebasics YouTube channel as a learning resource for beginners. It covers a range of Python algorithms and programs across topics including the basics of the language, NumPy (a library for working with numbers and arrays), and pandas (a library for working with tabular data). The README suggests starting with the Basics folder if you are writing Python for the first time. The programs are written as Jupyter Notebooks, which are interactive documents that mix code, output, and explanations in one file. You can run them cell by cell to see what each piece of code does. The repository is companion material for the Codebasics YouTube channel, where video tutorials are posted alongside these code examples. Contributions from the community are welcome. There is no setup guide in the README beyond pointing new learners to the Basics folder.

Copy-paste prompts

Prompt 1
I opened the Basics folder in codebasics/py and I'm stuck on the loops notebook. Explain what this code does step by step and show me a variation that iterates over a dictionary instead.
Prompt 2
I'm following the codebasics/py NumPy examples. Show me how to go from the basic array creation notebooks to doing a matrix multiplication and explain the shapes involved.
Prompt 3
I'm working through the pandas notebooks in codebasics/py. How do I filter a DataFrame to only rows where a column value is above a threshold, and then group by another column?
Prompt 4
I want to run the codebasics/py notebooks locally. Walk me through installing Python, Jupyter, NumPy, and pandas from scratch on Windows.
