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

Managed to complete this in 2 weeks as I have quite a lot of time available. The exercises were fairly simple and easy to understand giving me a good grounding in the basics of python.

Very Useful

This is a nice slow wade-in to the concepts behind programming with lessons that happen to use Python. Very good for me. I enjoyed it and recommend it highly.

This is not a start, at the end of the course, you still can't use python. And even the tools don't work properly.

I really like the way this course is presented, fun and light hearted but at the same time feel encouraged to do my best. Thank you so much to everyone who made this course posable.

easy and friendly to non-technical people (it's really for Everybody!) Thanks Prof for being so humourous and making the lessons interesting!

Thank you for the course

Dr. Chuck is the most encouraging and entertaining teacher I have ever met!!! He really makes learning about computer and programming easy and fun! And he makes a great Prof. Snape impersonation! :-) Most importantly, Dr. Chuck intentionally included many mistakes in his teaching materials. As a self-taught programmer who has struggled on one's own, I believe this is the most valuable part of the lectures. The students get to understand from the very beginning how to read error messages and tracebacks, how to debug, how not to be intimidated by mistakes and failures, and how to become a confident programmer. This should be THE teaching model for programming in any language! Thank you, Dr. Chuck! And I look forward to learning more from you in our follow-up courses!

A little too easy for someone who has already know C++

Learned a lot
