A good introductory course to Python.
1) The brand-new coursera jupyter notebooks are great.
2) The in-video quizzes are sometimes harder than assignments.
3) Showing two guys in the background of every video was unnecessary.
Excellent introduction to Data Science. I just wish that there are practice assignments on just the topics covered before diving into our own implementations
The course is informative and well structured. The programming assignments are challenging, but I consider this a good thing as it forces the students to learn on their own. Be prepared to spend more time than advertised.
The course aims to be realistic and thus puts a lot of emphasis on data preparation and cleaning. However, it lacks tests for your code so it is often tough to figure out exactly what the autograder wants to see prior to submitting. This had caused me some frustration as the final project does not expect a thoroughly cleaned data set, but rather one that is cleaned up to a certain point (e.g., you have to remove parenthesis but leave orphan punctuation in place).
Great course. Quite challenging, but the videos gives a lot of informations, so to solve assignments you need only a little of your own research. But you need a lot of your own work in understanding what's going on. Good course, it's not exactly the beginners level, rather beginners +, but after the course you are able to do something on yourself.
One of the best courses I've attended in the Coursera. The programming assignments were tough. But I think in some assignments instructions were not clear or were not available at single place. Ideally all the instructions/hints etc should be placed inside the notebook for assignments.
Overall the course challenged my learning. And I needed to do lots of googling to look into stackoverflow, pandas documentation etc to reach the correct answers. Awesome course.
Very informative and helpful to have first insights on data visualization technics, data charting and guidelines for good and professional data analysis and visualization.
The videos should prepare newer Python learners better to complete the assignments. Moreover, some questions are very vague and unnecessarily long.
Great course, affords you the opportunity to learn and to find solutions to problems.
Great content and i love that....!
