The content of too basic, the instructor was amazing. I loved the assignment submission procedure. The course was very well made and is definitely one of the bests on Coursera.

Thank you, and if you read this, I request you all to visit this, here you'll definitely find something impressive to learn.

I really loved the way each topic was explained and the presence of an interactive workspace. The fact that the same interactive module is used by students at UMich made me feel like I was a student at UMich. The Codelens feature is really cool, especially for beginners.

A perfect course for beginners. Concepts clearly explained, assignments and excercises are well designed to test our understanding. Codelens is definitely the highlight of the course which lets us through each and every single step of execution process.

A bit lengthy for "basic python course" and it would be better if they use modern softwares like visual studio code , jupyter notebook , pycharm , Spyder etc. Rather than that it was a great experience for me 👍

A very good course to start and learn basics!! I will definitely recommend it to noobs in programming.

Deducted one star for not including tuples and dictionary! rest it is very thorough and enjoyable.

Didn't expected this course to be beginner friendly as many courses out there aren't.

This course really helped me improve my Python. From lectures to assignments everything was praise worthy.

good course for learning basics of python and provide us root knowledge of basics of python ,thanks coursera for providing this course

Good for beginners. Pace is very, very slow. Good exercises though and very good at building upon the material with each step.

Very helpful to beginner.

Very helpful

This is a good introductory course to Python, definitely gets the interest going! However, when doing exercises and practice questions, I feel that there can be more support provided. Especially in terms of identifying the mistakes done so students can rectify it (and the thought process is actually what's most important because this is what we'll takeaway). Most often than not, I find myself scouring through the world wide web instead because the issue is not sufficiently addressed in the textbook materials. The problem with solutions on the world wide web is that sometimes they're using methods which we have yet to cover in the classes hence, we don't really understand.

The content is good for a first course. 2 drawbacks - (1.) Question asked on the discussion forum was not answered. (2). Steve is not quite clear with explanations. One of the examples... In places where running code with different conditions could help explain the difference, he ran them one at a time.

Content is good and pedagogic but:

The tool is veeeeeeeeeeeryyyyyyyy slow to load between each answer and it's visible that it hasn't been updated or rewritten using a better presentation framework.

Course is not updated to the latest python 3.8

Does not work on iPad !!!! come on !

If you want to learn the basics of Python, take Dr. Chuck's "Programming for Everybody." The lectures in this course were slow and not interesting, so I didn't watch them and I just worked through the Runestone project to complete the course.

It does an ok job at teaching the basics, but it doesn't push you hard enough. Learning supplementary information along side makes this course extremely simple.

This course didn't meet my expectations. It had a very very small portion of python which is obviously not enough.

Quite useful for advanced programmers as well.

The lectures were OK but a majority of the questions on the exams were incredibly difficult and did not represent the basics that were taught in the previous lectures. I passed them by googling snippits of code and piecing it together rather than recalling what was taught. It is unfortunate that the exams/quizzes where actual coding was required did not test for comprehension of what was truly taught because I could have really used the extra reinforcement. I really appreciate the way Steve breaks down code and visually explains it--but that's really the only positive I have. Very disappointed in this specialization thus far and its only class 1!

Unbelievable slow and plodding. Videos just tell you how to answer the problems, sometimes all or nearly all of them.

When I had to put it on hold I found that I couldn't progress until I had waited for several months for another "session" -- something I don't believe they made clear would happen. Just dropping the course.

excellent course and very usefull to beginners thank you sirr!

Terrible Way too basic. Could not speed up the lecture delivery rate. Couldn't access the runestone tool after the first session - it kep telling me I had to log in and told me to access some link that was nowhere to be found. Useless.

always the bugs!!!! MAD.

Got BEHIND cuz of a glitch for 2 days over a week ago.

it was fixed next day or so.

Had to reset my course deadlines....NOT WORKING. wow Coursera. you are full of it!!

i didn,t like the interferance of the course and their assigment tool very boring left the course after few lectures

not recommended course to buy

Fake course
