Describe computer programming : How Code Runs

The video tutorial explains how code is executed on a computer, using both Scratch and Python as examples. It demonstrates the sequential execution of code, introduces the concept of delays using Scratch's wait block and Python's sleep function, and highlights the importance of syntax in coding. The tutorial also covers error handling in Python, showing how mistakes can prevent code from running. Overall, it provides a foundational understanding of how code runs and how to control its flow.
