HADI PARTOVI: Hello, world.

3
00:00:01,330 --> 00:00:02,920
My name is Hadi Partovi.

4
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:05,430
I run an organization called code.org.

5
00:00:05,430 --> 00:00:08,640
We're best known for our hour
of code campaign as something

6
00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:11,170
we launched for the first
time last year in 2013,

7
00:00:11,170 --> 00:00:13,900
and the last three
months the hour of code

8
00:00:13,900 --> 00:00:18,140
has already reached 30 million students,
showing the computer science is

9
00:00:18,140 --> 00:00:21,250
something that is applicable and
something that anybody can learn.

10
00:00:21,250 --> 00:00:25,020
It's useful whether you want to become a
doctor, a lawyer, an astronaut, or even

11
00:00:25,020 --> 00:00:26,270
the president.

12
00:00:26,270 --> 00:00:29,570
>> And those of you who are
learning it CS50 today,

13
00:00:29,570 --> 00:00:31,600
you're learning things
like how to write a four

14
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:33,530
loop, or a peat loop,
an if-then statement,

15
00:00:33,530 --> 00:00:35,570
or how to program your own functions.

16
00:00:35,570 --> 00:00:37,870
These are concepts that
anybody can learn, and are

17
00:00:37,870 --> 00:00:41,230
fundamental to how all of
computing around us works.

18
00:00:41,230 --> 00:00:45,690
>> I myself was a CS50 TF when I first
went to Harvard, so it's exciting for me

19
00:00:45,690 --> 00:00:47,450
to record this video for you all.

20
00:00:47,450 --> 00:00:49,090
So enjoy yourselves.

21
00:00:49,090 --> 00:00:50,840
This is CS50.
