A simplified Python simulation of diffusion

The author reflects on listening to Richard Feynman’s lectures and how even as a physicist, they still found value in listening to undergraduate-level lectures. They discuss the importance of Feynman’s ability to help students visualize concepts intuitively and express how they’re using Python to teach physics concepts. The tutorial walks readers through creating a Python simulation of gas particles in a container, highlighting how to represent the container and particles using classes, and how to handle collisions between particles. The author plans to publish a Part 2 with more efficient collision solutions in the future. The article emphasizes coding while simplifying physics concepts for understanding.
