Easy to follow and not boring. The instructor breaks things down in simple form. The Coursera platform is sometimes a bit quirky but otherwise the content in this course I thought was quite excellent.

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.

This is a great intro to programming. Charles is really easy to understand and makes sure beginners do not get discouraged. If you already know some basics you can speed through the videos quickly.

I do learn a lot about python from this course.
Even though I'm a super beginner as to python, but this course gave me kind explanation and inspiration.

The pace and structure are perfect for the beginner programmer. The courses build in difficulty in a logical progression to help the learner gain a solid infrastructure for more challenging topics.

Dr. Severance is the programming professor I should have had back in '87 when I was crunching thermodynamics with Fortran 77. Boy I was lost back then! He does great and it all works well online.

It's an exceptional course on Coursera. Course is a bend of theory and wisdom lectures from Python founder and inventors in computer sciences. It's always pleasure to listen to Professor Severance.

Great overview - went over things many times but patiently and slowly. I have taken a few intro to programming classes and this was one of the easier to follow and understand ones I've experienced.

This course is very basic and is for the learners who are very new to programming. If you already know the programming in other language, only keywords are different and may not be as you expected.

Best professor and amazing course. Need to make people work more. Assignments are interesting. Include more than 2 assignments as people taking online courses don't get time to work on their own.

I have some familiarity with Python already, so this was more of a refresher, but it was well laid out and did a good job bringing you through some fundamentals of python and computational logic.
