Hi, I'm Raza.
I've spent 15+ years in finance and tech, but every playbook I knew is now dead.
AI is changing everything, and as a dad of 4, I'm terrified.
If you want to survive what's coming, do one thing:
Python Functions for beginners 🧵
Functions are a block of code that can be executed in a standardised way
All Python frameworks, like Django or Flask, rely on them.
Knowing the basics is essential
What we covered so far 👇
What can you do in Web3?
How can you use blockchain?
Wait what exactly can you do with a blockchain?
These were also questions that I had!
Let's continue where we left of and dive in slightly deeper before we use Python to do some web3 stuff.
A (MEGA) thread🧵 👇
Remember my tweet "Mint NFT's with Python"
Yes it's time!
As I promised y'all, I'm coming with content to start using Python in the web3 space.
BUT conceptual knowledge is also important.
So here's a (mega?) thread🧵 on what Web3 is.
Starting a video thread!! 🧵👇
In this video thread you will find 8 #python videos explaining the basics in python for beginners!
Every video is about 100 seconds :)
quick disclaimer it's obviously not covering everything about python ;)
I got infected with Web3 😝
Did you know Solidity developers make $145k!?
I kind of don't want to miss out on this XD
So I'm going to learn Solidity :)
Join me!
Here's a thread on how to setup your environment to practise Solidity and write Smart Contracts!
If you want to learn programming.
Start.
IF you're worrying about age?
Don't.
Trust me, now is the right time.
The amount of opportunities are insane.
Now go and code some Python
My father used to clean toilets for a living
He never felt less, but always wanted more for his kids
By the time everyone had color-screen cellphones, he had a second-hand phone that barely worked
Today he was helping me with my new setup (not done yet)
Thank you for 50k 🙏
I planned to master the basics in Python in 1 month.
This was 8 months ago.
Still dealing with the basics.
Don't give up.
I swear it's worth it.
Now go and code some Python.
Facebook is down.
Instagram is down.
WhatsApp is down.

As promised, i'm bringing it to to y'all!
Using Python in the Web3 space.
Here's the code.
A thread 🧵 explaining the code and steps we need to take.
LET'S GO
Now go and code some Python
You don't NEED a new year to start good habits.
But it's a nice moment to start.
Might as wel use it to start learning Python.
Now go and code some Python
(and happy new year)
Python Functions for beginners Mega Thread 🧵
This thread pretty much covers all elements in functions for Python.
Some advanced elements are left out.
Function is a block of code that can be executed in a standardised way
Python frameworks, like Django or Flask, rely on them.
Im not going to lie.
I created this by accident in Python.
But I'm freaking proud of it 😂
ps. taking a break from posting exercises.
I call this piece "Oops"
5 Tips to master Python for beginners 🧵👇
When I started to code, I begun with a framework, Django, used for web development.
While it was fun to do little projects, there was a lot of code I didn't UNDERSTAND. This was especially frustrating when dealing with errors.
You can transfer tokens on Ethereum or Polygon with Python
You see a lot of javascript tutorials focusing on Web3, but trust me Python still very relevant.
Let me show you how

Become addicted to constant self-improvement.
Become addicted to learning new skills.
Become addicted to the journey.

You don't need to code 12 hours a day.
But practising daily is important.
Set a target at 20% of your available time.
And crush your target everyday.

Tip of the day:
Before you learn a framework like Django or Flask for web development, learn the basics in Python!
Trust me.
I started first with Django and was too stubborn to go back to learn the basics. I was just learning a trick. I didn't understand what I was doing.

I'm a huge Kobe Bryant fan.
To me he was...is the very definition of:
"Hard work pays off"
Apply that Mamba mentality to coding.
Now go and code some Python
No one can steal your knowledge or skills from you
That's why it's so powerfull to develop yourself
That's why I love programming.
Enough to learn.
Enough to develop.
Now go and code some Python
The older I get the more I realize.
I just want to have an impact.
Enjoy the process.
Spend time learning new skills and use them.
Now go and code some Python
Build with intent.
Not because it's trendy.
Not because it might pump.
Not because VCs might fund it.
But because it solves a problem that matters.
Because it makes someone's life better.
Because it should exist in the world.
I've watched too many brilliant minds chase markets instead of meaning.
Too many talented teams optimize for funding instead of impact…
The projects that last are built on genuine purpose.
Take what it is that you are building, and ask yourself the most important question - “why?”
Hey you Python beginner 👋
Confused about Lambda functions?
Check out this post👇
To say it simplified a Lambda function in Python is:
'lambda arguments: expression'
It's a way to simplify your code, which is really handy if you code in Python or Django, Flask, Pandas, etc.
