Let us know in the chats to sound is good for what we on three to everybody Got the volume on Now I've got the mike on Mike.

Hot mic gets one on DDE Hello.

Good morning.

Always my true Forgot how handy.

Oh, okay.

Hold on, hold on.

We've got to see the Yahtzee.

Okay, we see the A, uh, that to me.

Your host of the coating train at home It is me.

Dan Shiffman.

Welcome.

Good morning.

It has been quite a while since I have live Streamed.

I think it was about 72 years ago.

Or at least it certainly feels like when I was back at work at New York University in a room that had no windows live streaming and doing coach coding tutorial.

So much has changed.

I have a smile on my face, but I know a lot of people are struggling on have a lot of different kinds of hardships and challenges, and I hope that doing a little live stream this morning can I'm being tapped on the leg.

Yes.

I was saying meaningful important things to the camera.

You can do scratch.

That's what we're doing.

I'm a very serious person who does very serious, meaningful, important last year.

Anyway, what I want to say is I hope that this live stream can bring you a distraction, a little bit of happiness.

Maybe you will learn something I should say from the outset that if what you were expecting today was a proper coding tutorial an educational experience, Not that that ever actually happens on the coding train.

It really doesn't.

But today will be even less so.

I'm just gonna have a little fun.

Test out the new setup that I have here at home.

I've got Operator one.

Say hello in the chat operator.

One operator, 1 11 years old.

E is operating the chat type being hello in there and operator number to wave to me.

Hello?

Operator number two is, um let's take a look at this.

What you got on your screen?

They're operating number two.

No.

What?

Like you're right.

You have scratch open.

Yeah.

Okay.

Uh, this is Oh, there it is.

Operators number to scratch Project eight years old.

So we will be looking at operator number two's ups.

That's the wrong button, which is fine.

I'm gonna talk about this in a second.

We will be looking at Operator number two's a scratch project in a little bit.

I All right, So I'm not worried.

You know, I've never organized with this stuff, but I should have released, had myself a little outline or a little script, which I do not.

But this is the plan for today.

First, I want to talk about that.

This live stream is a fundraiser.

It is a fund raiser for the coating that cuff start coating Cove in 19 Solitary Response Fund for who this is fund raiser is being operated out of Google and YouTube itself.

There should be a donate button that you can see the live stream page that you're looking at.

You could make a donation.

Let me just read to you what this fundraiser is.

We're all affected by the growing cove, it 19 pandemic.

It's an unprecedented health challenging.

You know, people in organizations everywhere want to help.

The World Health Organization is leading and coordinating the global effort, supporting countries to prevent, detect and respond to the pan Tan de Mick, the greatest need right now is to help ensure all countries are prepared, especially those with the weakest health systems.

Donation support who's who work to track and understand the spread of the virus to ensure patients get the care they need and frontline workers get essential supplies and information, and to accelerate efforts to develop vaccines, tests and treatments.

So I know there are a lot of good causes and organizations, and there's a lot of people and organizations in need right now.

Theis, since this is sort of officially vetted through YouTube and they're actually I should know this.

But I believe Google is matching a certain number of certain.

I think every $2 for every $1 you donate tone cobia looked it up in advance.

But there is a match by Google and YouTube again.

This is not an official.

This is just me.

At home in Brooklyn, New York live streaming was equipment that I threw together.

So I'm not an official representative of this fundraiser of who of Google of YouTube.

Any of that.

I'm just participating as a citizen of the world.

Um, okay, so and keep it friendly in the chat.

This is This is the coded train for kids, Okay?

I mean, I always try to be a family friendly show, but here we are.

Hello?

All right.

Do you want to announce the Q and A.

So let me first mention that there is a coding train discord.

So I'm just gonna press my little button here, which should post a link to the discord in the chat.

If you're If you wantto engaged with the coding train community in various ways joined the discord I will be doing.

I've got some new technology where I could take calls and I'm gonna do like a Q and a live call in kind of, like, show like thing with people in the discord at some point next week.

I don't know when yet.

So join the discord.

If you want an announcement for that.

Um, let's see, uh, what else do I want to talk about?

So that waas I'm talking about this as a fund raiser.

What am I forgetting Anything, operator One or operate number two.

You're just working there over unscratched.

Operator number two.

Not even paying attention.

Uh, so let me talk about scratch for a second.

I am going to switch over to here.

Um, you know, we should find one of the cats.

Well, im IPs.

Okay, Operator number one is off to find a cat's.

You guys don't have to whisper.

I'm very confused, by the way, what's appropriate in terms of having kids on a live stream?

So this this is not a monetized livestream.

There is a chat going.

My kids really wanted to participate.

I'd love to have them participate and do lots of fun things with them.

But anyway, I'm also all conscientious about their privacy, So I'm trying to figure out what is appropriate.

But they might say hello.

Their faces, my pop up.

I think we will all survive.

What?

What can I show you here?

On this, by the way, operator number two.

Oh, here we go.

We've got we've got cat number one.

Okay, that's operator number one's head going by.

Let's see, Let's switch to the full view.

Uh, here we go.

Okay.

So this is Greta.

Greta is was born.

When was great aboard July.

So how old was born in July?

It seems like that seems like a 1,000,000,000 years ago, but Greta was born Thio a rescued cat.

Why one of my colleagues at N Y.

U rescued the mother will.

Some other name You don't remember?

Remember the mother's name?

Mama Cat.

And we read it.

And so we adopted two of the kittens born to Mama Cat, Greta and the other.

The other cat is Evie.

And you can follow them on instinct.

Uh, instagram dot com slash mango and goose.

So, uh, yeah.

Uh What?

Oh, I was gonna put her on my shoulder, but I don't think she likes that.

Um, okay, you're half credit back.

Some e V will come at some point.

Operator number two would like a cat.

We have two cats.

That's why you have to.

Personally, it's nice to have to because they have each other.

You know, I would say one of the the the living beings of the world that are happiest with this crisis global crisis.

And I don't mean to trivialize it or make light of it, but are the pets of the world because everybody's at home with their pets all the time.

I did it Confirm my email.

Uh, let's see.

Oh, no, I'm not.

I'm not sure you that screamer.

Okay, you know what we really need to do.

Kids, kids, kids.

It's story time.

It's story time on the coating train.

Time for me to read you a bedtime story.

Even though it's morning.

And I know you just woke up, You just wake up.

It's time to read a story.

Listen, you're paying attention.

I don't like distracted when I read.

By the way, I have read the entire book out loud.

Now, I mean, actually operated number one has read all the books like times just once or d'oh way.

Get through all of those.

I've been looking for your suggestions.

Mango induced middle name.

Thank you for answering, operator.

Not the best, Chapman.

Thank you to all of you.

Nice, wonderful volunteer moderators who always say operator number one.

I wonder what that one over to e, I guess Because birth order is that appropriate?

Your equal in my hearts.

You know, you're you're both operator one operator of 1.5 and outrage for one.

Yes.

Okay.

Uh, tooth.

So I was reading your bedtime story.

Uh, Okay.

Um let's see.

So let me talk about scratch for a second.

So one thing that I want to say I would I'm gonna return to Let me let me find this playlist here just to give you people a little bit of update about what's going on in terms of the coating train.

And, um, that sort of stuff Let me get to here and yes, and being tapped, they should be zero.

Where's my bell?

That is such a good point.

I apologize to everyone in the world right now that I have offended with my counting from one.

We have a big announcement to make.

I present to you, operator number.

I know that I present to you Theo Berry computer.

Not good.

Okay, we're gonna Can we look at it soon?

No.

Okay.

All right.

What I wanted to update you on is my progress with the nature of code playlist.

This is was my before the world changed so radically.

This was what I was working on.

So this is I wouldn't say advanced level.

But this is sort of like a follow up playlist, too.

For tutorials about how to program in p five gs.

Actually, what I should find you is this one.

Let me go to you.

So for those of you who might be new to the coding train, usually the stuff that I programmed in is in either Java using a programming environment called processing, which I could go on and on about.

But I'm going to stop myself from doing that right now, or P five gs, which is a Java script library.

And if you go to learning, I have to go to big.

If you're new and you go to beginners, you can find the two playlists here for if you never programmed before Andi, I would say, probably especially for all the kids at home.

This playlist, I would say, is probably appropriate for maybe six grade on.

You know, there are younger people and older people who do program in Java script.

But if p five, But I would say that the prerequisites are really being sort of comfortable typing suit kind of all you need, but that so if you've never programmed in jobs before, this is a playlist that you can that you can follow, then is that the state?

That's the same cat.

Okay.

Uh huh.

Then we have a whole lot of other so I want to mention this because a couple people have asked me Oh, I want to do some coding while I'm at home.

Um, where's your playlist to start with.

This is this is the one toe look at now.

The one that I'm currently working on on the website is under learning slash nature of code.

Um, and so this is a yes.

What?

You need help with your scratch project?

Yeah.

Okay.

We're gonna get to that next operator.

Number one needs help.

We've got right now, like over 500 people watching this right now who maybe can help.
