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.

Great introduction to Python and programming as a whole. Everything is broken down making it easy to understand. Had zero programming experience before and this class made it easy and fun to get into.

Enjoying it so far - including "office hours", interviews with various luminaries, and getting intimate with "try-except". Dr. Chunk rocks!

Teacher is wonderful. My brain..is not. Or at least I think it isn't. He does a wonderful job of parsing learning into manageable pieces
