Product placement

Duolingo: it is a language learning app that is being used here as a model for a coding app. It merely appears as a concept. Removing it would not change what happens in the video. Python: it is a programming language that is used to write the code in the video. It acts as the programming language for the exercises. Removing it would change what happens in the video.
