Good course for beginners, even for those who were non-programmers.

Explanations are clear and easy to understand. Thank you Profs Steve Oney and Paul Resnick!

This re-ignites my interest in programming again!

The course was great for the people with not so strong programming background. All the instructors taught this course with great devotion. And thanks to coursera for approving the financial aid application!!

I enjoyed the interactive coding windows (Runestone Interactive) and the teaching style of the instructors. Highly recommended for beginners and cut+paste programmers who what to learn the basics correctly.

I am happy that i chose this course as it helped me with the basics of Python and though i got a basic knowledge but it has made mei interested in the language and i hope i can learn more from this platform.

Loved the course! Everything was so clear, loved the spaced repetition tests, numerous quizzes, the online textbook. The faculty couldn't have done a better job! One of the best designed courses on Coursera.

Well explained and great way to start learning Python. Sometimes the speed of the course was too slow, but on the other hand the assignments could be challenging forcing you to really understand the syntax.

This course is exactly the one for a beginner who is interested in learning python. The course content was excellent and the way the instructors delivered it was fantastic. Looking ahead for the next course

Very well structured and paced for the beginning programmer. Concepts are clearly introduced, walked-through, and then multiple exercises are provided for the student to develop hands-on coding experience.

Amazing course that will teach you nuances of the language that you simply will never be able to grasp in a traditional class. Even if you know Python already, this course is absolutely worth going through.

At the beginning I thought It was rather basic, but later on I realize how important was coming to the basics for having a solid foundation. I found out my foundations were weak. I really loved the course!

The lecture is very useful and clear for the Python beginners. It provides not only wonderful illustration but also many coding exercises. It also gives the beginners helpful concepts of good programming.

The Python Basics by University of Michigan has helped me a lot by giving so much information with proper explanation and tools. I suggest you to go through this course for all the beginners.

Thank you!.

I wish all other programming languages had courses on the same level of professionalism, love & dedication as what is put into this course. We need something like this for all other programming languages.

I absolutely loved this course. The most powerful aspect of this course is its simplicity and Runestone Interactive. Now I am very well accustomed with strings, lists, tuples and various methods for them.

For anyone who is interested to take up Python, this is the course for you. The CodeLens feature is especially helpful for students who have problems understanding the working processes of an interpreter.

The course was very useful,I've learned very useful things about python. I recommend everyone who wants to take this course!

Thank you Courseera team and the Team of University of MichiganMichiganMichigan

Anyone who is a beginner this course is a go.Their teaching faculty and study material is great.

The style of teaching is also good.I am thankful to University of Michigan

and coursera for this course.

Truly a fantastic learning experience! The material is presented in such a clear, easy to understand and fun way. It just makes learning enjoyable and addictive, in a way. The Runestone textbook is GOLD!

Great course! learned the basics of python very well. It helped in building the basics strong and build the confidence of learning more and more. Looking forward to the next course in the specialization!

Great course! It is very detail instruction. I was learn Python for Everybody (Course 1 and 2) of Dr Chuck. It was great too but in this course I understand more about detail of python. And I love both.

An excelent course, thanks a lot, professors from the University of Michigan, for teaching Python and making it so easy to understand. Also thanks to Coursera for allowing this content on the platform.

Great course to start with Python. The additional digital book is great with the practise module in it. For me it was a little to basic, and some explained codes are strange. I can´t see the use of it.

Basic course, very well eplained. For those who are a little more experienced, in some situations it may seems boring, but a review never hurts. What hurts instead is the humor of a certain professor.

This is a great course for getting started in Python. If you have (even rusty) programming skills, it might seem a little slow in places. Trust me, pay attention - you will still learn new things.

Great course which does not allow you to not learn python !! Highly recommended for anyone who wants to understand and learn useful programming, the interactions are well structured and well fitted
