The second best thing of this course is getting to learn the basics of Python. The best thing is learning it from Dr. Chuck. Thanks, Chuck, you deserve more than 5 stars!

The first ever online course I took and I loved taking 'Getting Started with Python' and Coursera Platform. Looking forward to complete the Python Specialization program.

Excellent introductory course. I had a prior knowledge in C, so it took me a lot less time than it should have. Nonetheless, one can comfortably complete it in 3-4 weeks.

Awesome course from the awesome Dr. Chuck.

I started to do programming after your course and managed to solve some tasks, which I was not able to solve using Excel.

Thanks.

Highly recommended for those who have never programmed before or are intimidated by programming. Charles Severance makes Python seem like the easiest thing you can learn.

it's a good introduction course for anybody interested in Python but never actually had a chance to get to into it. Definitely go for the higher level courses afterwards!

Great course to start learning Python as a beginner! Lectures are short, simple and fun and complicated topics are stripped down to easy to understand learning materials.

I never know learning programming could be this fun and intellectually-rewarding. The Professor is of the best quality and humor that I have ever encountered. Keep it up!

Excelent course, It covers what it says. I have some programming experience but never programmed in python so this course was awesome to learn the python structure to me.

Very good introduction to python. Dr Chuck is a very friendly, affable teacher. The textbook is free. The load of this class is not so heavy. I really enjoyed the class.

Nice way of giving the material, easy to understand and interesting to listen. Across all the others courses what I made before on Coursera, this one is the most curious.

The basics covered in an easy, comprehensible way. A 6-year old would get that probably, which means it's explained like it should be for a "getting started with" course.
