The teaching materials are sophisticated and robust; you can expect to absorb quite a lot of the basics if you utilize the textbook and the video. I wouldn't mind having more exercizes, but overall it was a great experience.

I was a total beginner in programming before this course and I was feeling little bit afraid of the subject, however after completing this course I feel much more comfortable and confident about myself that I could learn it.

Outstanding! Very well laid out, the book is helpful, the lessons are helpful, and the exercises truly reinforce the concepts taught in the lecture. This is a great option for anyone looking to begin in computer programming.

Basic course with good implementations and cases for better understanding .But the last for loop execution in the terminal was my biggest trouble.The loop videos seemed to be rushed for a beginner .They were not so friendly.

Great course, good explanations, excited for the next instalment. Only downside is it seems that Python 3 is now being implemented as opposed to python 2.

I personally would have preferred if this course went as far as lists.

I enjoyed learning the first programming skills in my life. This is the stepping stone to learn more programming skills in the future. Thank you Dr. Chuck and all the coursera teams for bringing this course to me and others.

It's a clear and nice tutorial. Although I've learned python before, I still find it fascinating and worthy to spend several hours to review some of the basics.

And the professor himself is super humorous.

Good experience, 5/5

This is really best course for individual wants to learn python without having previous knowledge in programming. Dr. Charles has explained each concepts in simple manner and his book "Python for infromatics" is really good.

Loved learning from Charles Severance. Really felt like I learned the fundamentals of Python AND programming at the same time. Learned a lot about computational thinking and OOP which I can apply to Java and other languages.

This course is great for those seeking to learn Fundamentals of Python. This course is designed in such a way that I never felt boring watching the lectures.

I would recommend this course for those who wants to learn Python.

I loved every bit of this course. The way Dr Chuck teaches you is amazing. I have a very strong math background but I am a layman to computer programming and this course taught me how amazing it is. Thanks to the professor!

This course is very useful. And I'm really impressed by the way teaching of the lecturer and he did inspire me to finish this course. Moreover, the assignments are helpful. I don't know how to say thanks for his enthusiasm.

Excellent. Very good introduction on working with Python fundamentals, presented in a relaxed pace whilst being comprehensive. Dr. Chuck is a great Instructor, his notes presentation of materials made everything very clear.

I did this for refresh training, and it turned out it did works. I like the way teaching, moreover it covers all key points on basic grammar, which helps me understand the logical of python and apply it more intelligently.

I am a novice at programming. But Dr. Chuck is amazing. He made us understand some basics of Python programming in a simple way. So, I would suggest if you want to learn Python programming from zero, this course is for you.

Es un programa muy bueno para personas que no saben nada de programación y es un buen curso para desempolvar conocimiento para las personas que ya saben programar en otro lenguaje, definitivamente un buen lugar para empezar

This is the best programming for an absolute beginner. It is decently paced and teaches the core concepts with an ample number of examples and the instructor is really humorous. It was like a ride in the park, never boring.

Good introductory course for beginners to python programming. The instructor was very clear in his explanation. The coding assignments and quizzes were fun to do as well as it provides a good way to do some hands-on coding.

The course was really awesome.

I learnt alot of things and got a chance to improve my Programming skills.

Our instructor Mr. Charles Severance is really an amazing personality.

A big thanks to our Instructor and team Coursera.

I have never attended any class related to programming and have also not learned Python before. But the way Dr.Chuck has taught Python through out the course it has incremented my zeal towards learning Python more and more.

The way, Dr. Chuck has formulated this course, is appeasingly interesting. I would suggest everyone out there, no matter the background, to give it a shot.

The only prerequisite here is your interest and excitement to learn!

Dr.Chuck is an amazing teacher.He explains the concepts with a bit of wit and humor,By this course i have learned the basics of python and industrial applications.Looking forward to next course (Python with datastructures).

loved this class. I liked the manner of the teacher, loose but everything said was important. The examples covered the concepts well and the textbook too. I loved that I was really programming and using real world examples.

I personally enjoyed the atmosphere and content of the course.It was good experience.Its interesting to learn new python because of which i was able to complete my course quite effectively also before the timeline provided.
