Welcome to Python Sequences.
0:09
My name is Ashley Boucher and
I'll be your instructor for this course.
0:11
This course does have some prerequisites,
so go ahead and check the teacher's notes
0:14
before continuing to make sure that
you're as prepared as possible.
0:17
As you might already know, a Python
sequence is an ordered group of things.
0:21
In Python, there are several
different types of sequences.
0:25
And you're probably already familiar with
a few of them, lists, tuples, and strings.
0:28
There are also ranges which
will be covered in this course.
0:32
And there are also sequences tailored for
0:35
working with binary data,
which won't be covered in this course.
0:37
We're going to focus less on
what these sequences are and
0:41
more on what you can do with them.
0:43
Like iterating over them,
creating ranges and
0:45
slices, easily getting information about
elements in a sequence, like the min and
0:47
the max, and even comparing,
concatenating, and multiplying sequences.
0:52
As usual, feel free to slow me down and
speed me up as needed.
0:57
If you have questions,
1:00
the Treehouse community is
an excellent place to reach out,
1:01
get to know your peers, and contribute
to both your learning and others.
1:04
When you're ready,
1:08
come join me in the next video to
start learning about iteration.
