Instructor is not interested in teaching but just reading out the script
Good overall and I liked the instructor. However the assignments are extremely difficult, especially Week 4 and there are not a lot of online resources made available. Definitely not for a beginner!
Great introduction into pandas environment in Python.
First assignment was most difficult in my opinion. There were times i had no idea where to look but stackoverflow and the pandas documentation were great references, which once i understood how to better search and interpret, i was able to do what i wanted.
One thing i liked was there was ample struggle in this course. I've done other coursera courses and found that the exact problem statement and solution were posted online, which was hard to avoid when looking for more generalized help. I
It doesn't give you all the resources, making you do your own research to get all the answers, which is great.
Sometimes questions were not clear enough but the forum discussions do help
This course has helped me understand how to use pandas.
Excellent course challenging at every stage. Especially the emphasis on assignments without spoon feeding is really brilliant.
One suggestion is during the assignments, especially week4 there are situations where Pandas was giving lot of trouble. For beginners it is becoming trial and error in between. Will be good if you can collate such challenging aspects and include optional tutorial for students to specialize in those topics. YOu need not cover everything but some comprehensive on such topics. Otherwise course is excellent
The course is pretty good. However, the tasks are no easy to understand.
Good Course!
