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.

I really enjoyed this course. I am completely new to Python and Dr. Severance took a nice pace, not too slow and not too fast, which allowed me to remain "caught up" and confident throughout.

Assignments are very helpful in learning. You truly have to figure some things out on your own and really think things through. The teachers on the forum are also quick to answer and helpful.
