Very good introduction to basic programming. Very easy for beginners in python who have already some programming background - but still extremely useful to quickly and efficiently learn python basics.

Good introductory course. If you've done any programming in the past you can kind of "fast forward" through the videos but it gives you a good overview of the general syntax etc.

A great intro to Python! Too much video that didn't seem useful to me (the office hours and accompanying video), but the lectures and practice provided a nice balance of learning.
