Ratings and Reviews for Programming for Everybody (Getting Started with Python)

Brilliant course, Professor Chuck is awesome. The amount of time he takes explaining the concepts is remarkable and the assignments and quizzes makes great sense.

Excellent for beginners. You don't need any experience at all just access to a relatively new computer and the internet. Dr. Severance is a great teacher and the Coursera structure of the course is great for low maintenance study.

a very good introduction "for anybody".

Clear, concise, and rich material.

I would recommend this course to non-programmers and junior programmers too. The material is explained in a very simple manner and the additional weekly interviews are very inspirational and motivational.

good for beginner, but too easy for me ^_^

Awesome, fun and insightful!

Excellent for introducing someone to programming in Python. In my case it was easiest to move from a language like C/C++ to learn Python.

Dr. Severance is great. He introduces you to coding in a way that is non-intimidating and feels completely natural within a couple of weeks. Instead of dreading class I found myself excited about attending everyday and was able to progress faster than the course outline due to his extremely clear and supportive teaching method. I'm already reading data from files and it isn't even covered until the next course. If you take this class, read the book and you will do well.

You guys made this very easy to learn! Thanks!
