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.

Loved this course! I had prior knowledge of some topics (iterations, variables etc) since I learned C in high school, so it was kinda easy for me.

I used to do computer programming about ten years ago, and somehow I forgot almost everything related. This course was a great fresh start for me.
