My name is James and I work as a software engineer in the UK. I do coding videos, released every other Friday.
-----------------
Looking to learn Python?

- I run a Udemy course with 16+ hours of video, 32+ coding assignments, 20 quizzes, and 5 projects which can be included in your first portfolio. This is updated monthly with a new job interview style question!

- I also run a functional Python course which focuses on using List, Set, Dict and generator comprehensions. It's full of exercises, quizzes and is updated monthly with a challenging question.
