Very easy to follow, great and enthusiastic lecturer.
Very comprehensive course with a slow pace which is well designed for beginners.
Awesome Introductory course for Python Programming!
Good Content
Great introductory to Python!
Not the greatest Python course in the world. Teaching seems unprofessional and disorganized, technical issues are common, and the discussion forums do not offer much value, as you cannot discuss your code with your peers, and the forum staff are more than often unhelpful. The exercises are unoriginal and do not require much creative thinking - often it's enough to copy & paste code from the lectures and change a few variables around! You're better of looking for other Python beginner courses on the Coursera platform, as well as on other platforms. The only thing I liked about the course were the interviews with people behind Python, but otherwise the course does not facilitate deeper learning and is not engaging.
This is a great class! It makes Python (and coding) approachable for people like me, who want to learn how to code but have absolutely no experience.
Outstanding introduction to Python programming language that will lay strong foundation to the more advanced topics about Python. The teaching style is superb and the things you learn stick in the long term memory really quickly. You need, however, to put additional effort on your side in order to truly "get" what's going on and learn and program as much as you can, as doing is really learning. Excellent, excellent course, teacher and the community.
Great for beginners, especially if you have never learned any programming before. The course is fun
just some basic things
