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

Excelent course for beginners.

Great course delivery and loved the extra videos, however as an experienced java developer I found the course too basic.

I would say it is really a very nice series of courses. I like it very much and I will definitely stick to it.

excellent course for beginner

This course is indicated to anyone looking for an overview of Python programming. All Assignments and Quizzes are quite simple problems. To be honest, I expected more of this course.

good

inp = raw_input("What do you think of the course?") while True: if inp == "Chuck_is_amazing": break if len (inp) < 1 : break else: "You_do_not_understand_why_this_is_a_good_course!": break print "inp"

very good!

The quality of the content is excellent and is presented clearly (although the lecturer drinking various things throughout the lectures was odd...). I plowed through all seven weeks in a day because I had already finished the first three weeks of the Rice University Python course (also on Coursera); I would say this entire course is nearly equivalent to the first three weeks of the Rice course. My reasons for doing this are two-fold: (1) practice, practice, practice, and (2) I plan to take all four courses in this series from U Mich - I am interested in the web and database aspects that do not seem to be covered in the Rice course. I did learn a thing or two from each course that was not presented in the other, but those points were relatively minor and would probably be stumbled across on a future troubleshooting visit to stackoverflow.

Profesor Chuck is the best! :-)
