About the Course

This course is designed to teach you the foundations in order to write simple programs in Python using the most common structures. No previous exposure to programming is needed. By the end of this course, you will understand the benefits of programming in IT roles; understand basic Python syntax; explore different code editors and developer environments; be able to write simple programs using Python; figure out how the building blocks of programming fit together; and combine all of this knowledge to solve a complex programming problem. We'll start off by diving into the basics of writing a computer program. Along the way, you’ll get hands-on experience with programming concepts through interactive exercises and real-world examples. You’ll quickly start to see how computers can perform a multitude of tasks — you just have to write code that tells them what to do....

Course presentation is good. Topic selection is good. Selected Strings, Lists, tuples and Dictionaries, using these program logic can be build. Examples are good and interesting. assignments are good.

Well made and you can take your own pace since your results are checked by a computer rather than waiting for peer-reviews saving you time and makes the flow to the next objectives easier.

All the exercise's were fun and challenging. At some times confusing because formatted output were not included for all the questions in all exercise. Otherwise all in all totally fun.

Although there are some areas that have really confused me, I managed to figure out where I was getting confused thanks to the video explanations and helpful comments within scripts.

It is a really good course to learn Python. The Final Project is the most challenging and interesting. It taught me real world Python.

The course is great.

My only comment is it would be greater if you add and spent more time on explaining concepts for new comers.

Having insignificant experience with programming, I was already familiar with most of the concepts discussed in the course. I did not, however, know Python, so the challenge was to learn the language. It is reasonably complicated for me, and I enjoyed the time I spent working at assignments and coding. I particularly liked that many examples and tasks related to the real-life problem (many books on learning programming language first give you kitties and puppies examples and then ask you to build a space ship).

I did not enjoy working with Jupiter blocks. The only thing that can justify the use of it is the last assessment, and even with that I still don't like it. It's just inconvenient and does not allow you to see the whole picture, so I had to copy-paste the code into an online compiler and work in it. Code blocks aren't ideal (they do not work properly on smaller screens), but at least you don't have to re-run all cells to see if one small change in one cell helped.

I also felt like there is not enough time for quizzes (30 mins for 8 tasks that require you to write some code?).

However, overall, it was a good experience and I liked the course. Hopefully, there will be some improvements in assignments in the future.

This course is definitely not for beginners that's all I have to say. Certain topics were not properly taught and many of the assignments had problems that we needed help with to solve. There should have been a solution sheet as well where we could see the solutions to the assigned problems so that even if we missed a few problems we could check the solution for better understanding. Take this course only if you have some understanding of coding. Thank you!

The course materials and organizations are excellent. But a few sample code resulted in error when you clicked on the Run button, even though the code is confirmed working in a Python interpretor. As an experienced IT professional, I did my share of troubleshooting before reporting the problem, but the support request didn't result in any resolution.

good starter course; it was my first exposure to Python - don't be afraid to do an internet search if you don't understand part of a topic, or take notes to follow up on later; I usually kept a compiler screen open to practice the code outside of Coursera and that helped significantly

Quite good. Modules 3 and 5 were a bit difficult for me, but I rushed through 2, 3, 4 and 5 to try and fit within a free trial. Had I taken longer, I'd probably have done better. The format seems to work well.
