      <description>Python&amp;rsquo;s being now a major part of my life. This beautiful language has made my life much better and easier. After programming and using Python for 1.5 years, I thought now is a good time to(at least) give sth back to the community: share and teach about Python to help others that might potentially benefit from this beautiful language.
This blog (and the YouTube channel associated) is all about Python. However, I&amp;rsquo;m by no means a Python guru or expert and you might be going to see I&amp;rsquo;m making some serious mistakes or setting some bad examples in my video tutorials.</description>
