Nice foundamental class for Python. I strongly recommend everyone who wants to learn Python to take part in this awesome class.
Really good course materials and instructions. The instrutor explains ideas vividly and goes into quites details, great!
Great course, but it is too simple
This course was amazing!! I previously had taken Python course from other university from an other website.It was very difficult and lost interest since it was first time I was dealing with python and the difficulty level was too much for a fresher to Python. But this was easy yet interesting as well :) and I am very happy Thank you Charles Sir !!! :)
Very interesting. Easy to understand.
this course is for some one who is new to python programming and is one of the best course i have taken ,good explanation , and great enthusiastic teacher Mr.Charles Severance I really liked the way he handled the explanation for various topics
The professor made the content easy to understand. As a beginner, this course introduces programming in a very thoughtful way. It keeps me focus on the right things so that I did not get freaked out at the beginning when the working environment looks very different from the experience of an end-user. And it step by step build up my understanding in programming elements. I signed up this course with rather strong motivation (my ultimate goal is to run statistical simulation and develop statistic packages for other users), so when I see the course introducing the elements I did not understand at all before, I can see the power behind those programming building blocks. Hence, this course really made me wanting to program more!
You learn the basics of coding in a very relaxed and understanding way.
A great introduction into fundamental concepts in Python. Dr. Chuck is a perfect teacher, funny, competent and engaging. You will watch the videos in no time! Also, the electronic version of the book is free and covers every problem you can possibly come across in this course. My recommendation: install Python on your computer immediately after enrolling and track the differences between Python 2 (course version) and Python 3. For example, instead of using "print x", you will use "print(x)".
Great course, made python learning challenging, but absolutely not terrifying. The assignments I felt were enough, nd look forward to trying out the capstone project when i have the available funds. Thank you so much Charles Severance for the intuitive and fun lectures and book.
