00:00:00,030 --> 00:00:04,589

Hi and welcome to this new section! In

this section you're going to learn about

3

00:00:04,589 --> 00:00:10,250

two very important concepts in

programming. These are functions and

5

00:00:10,250 --> 00:00:17,390

conditionals. Functions, functions are

used to keep your code more organized so

7

00:00:17,390 --> 00:00:24,029

think of functions as small chunks of

code which together build a program that

9

00:00:24,029 --> 00:00:27,240

is what you need to know for now.

Functions are useful for other things as

11

00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:31,800

well but you'll understand it as you

build the real world programs. In the next

13

00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:36,960

video I'll write a function but that is

just a standalone function, so it

15

00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:41,579

doesn't interact with other parts of the

code, it's just a function, but when you

17

00:00:41,579 --> 00:00:45,390

see the large applications later on

you'll see how the function integrates

19

00:00:45,390 --> 00:00:51,149

with other parts of the code, so that's a

good thing of creating reload programs.

21

00:00:51,149 --> 00:00:56,579

That is how you'll learn how to do

programming in real life. That's about

23

00:00:56,579 --> 00:01:00,600

functions and then in this section you'll

also learn conditionals which basically

25

00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:06,869

are used to have your program make

decisions, so if that number is greater

27

00:01:06,869 --> 00:01:12,150

than that do this, if it's not greater

than do this other thing, that's

29

00:01:12,150 --> 00:01:17,340

basically the idea, but you'll see it in

action, so this is about the introduction

31

00:01:17,340 --> 00:01:21,680

of this section. I'll see you in the

other lecture.
