<v ->Hi, guys, and welcome back.</v>

2
00:00:02.100 --> 00:00:03.320
In this video, we're going to learn

3
00:00:03.320 --> 00:00:05.980
about the in keyword in Python.

4
00:00:05.980 --> 00:00:07.920
The in keyword is something we can use

5
00:00:07.920 --> 00:00:09.750
to check for membership,

6
00:00:09.750 --> 00:00:12.580
whether one thing is inside a list

7
00:00:12.580 --> 00:00:14.123
or a tuple or a set.

8
00:00:14.960 --> 00:00:16.370
Let's get started.

9
00:00:16.370 --> 00:00:17.930
I'll have a list of friends,

10
00:00:17.930 --> 00:00:22.440
which contains Rolf, Bob, and Jen.

11
00:00:22.440 --> 00:00:24.100
And then we can very easily print

12
00:00:24.100 --> 00:00:27.423
whether Jen is in friends.

13
00:00:28.310 --> 00:00:31.300
And this is going to check whether the string Jen

14
00:00:31.300 --> 00:00:35.180
is one of the members in this list.

15
00:00:35.180 --> 00:00:37.690
So if we save that and run it,

16
00:00:37.690 --> 00:00:39.623
you'll see that we get back true.

17
00:00:41.950 --> 00:00:44.160
Now let's say that we have a set

18
00:00:44.160 --> 00:00:46.470
of the movies we've recently watched.

19
00:00:46.470 --> 00:00:47.650
I'm using a set here

20
00:00:47.650 --> 00:00:51.800
because movies are unique, so you can't have duplicates

21
00:00:51.800 --> 00:00:55.470
and having a set actually helps you prevent duplication.

22
00:00:55.470 --> 00:00:57.270
In addition, the movies that we've watched

23
00:00:57.270 --> 00:00:59.890
in this case don't have any specific order.

24
00:00:59.890 --> 00:01:01.650
So we don't care about the order,

25
00:01:01.650 --> 00:01:04.030
and therefore a set is a perfect structure

26
00:01:04.030 --> 00:01:05.503
to put these movies into.

27
00:01:06.360 --> 00:01:08.550
Then we are going to ask the user

28
00:01:08.550 --> 00:01:10.493
for a movie they've watched recently.

29
00:01:15.420 --> 00:01:16.900
And finally, we're going to print

30
00:01:16.900 --> 00:01:20.633
whether that movie is in our movies watched.

31
00:01:22.200 --> 00:01:23.310
If we run this,

32
00:01:23.310 --> 00:01:27.430
then you'll see that if we type The Matrix, you get true,

33
00:01:27.430 --> 00:01:29.920
but if you type Monty Python,

34
00:01:29.920 --> 00:01:31.593
then you'll get false.

35
00:01:33.010 --> 00:01:35.810
The in keyword works in sequences

36
00:01:35.810 --> 00:01:38.050
like lists, tuples, sets.

37
00:01:38.050 --> 00:01:39.780
It also works in strings, actually,

38
00:01:39.780 --> 00:01:42.200
so you can check whether a string

39
00:01:42.200 --> 00:01:45.350
is inside another string, such as a substring.

40
00:01:45.350 --> 00:01:50.290
For example, R-I-X would be in The Matrix.

41
00:01:50.290 --> 00:01:53.060
So you can do checks like that, as well, if you want.

42
00:01:53.060 --> 00:01:54.220
Let's move on to the next video

43
00:01:54.220 --> 00:01:56.440
where we're gonna learn how to use if statements

44
00:01:56.440 --> 00:01:58.030
with this syntax here

45
00:01:58.030 --> 00:02:00.610
so that we can create even more powerful programmes.

46
00:02:00.610 --> 00:02:01.560
I'll see you there.
