This course starts out with the real basics which makes it approachable for someone new to programming. If you already have experience programming, you can move through the material in a matter of hours - so it becomes a good refresher but doesn't consume too much of your time. Nice job! Keep up the quality courses!!

Great course and interesting materials and assignments. But I have previous skills in other programming languages , so some tasks were not so hard to pass. Professor is great in teaching and explaining important and complex concepts in easy and funny way. I will recommend this course to beginners and intermediate users.

This is hands down best class I have taken through coursera. So well thought out. Prof does a great job presenting the materials in an order that allows the learner to build a start to finish understanding of the material that leaves you with knowledge that can be applied not just memorization of a programming language.

Good intro to Python. And to programming in general.

One problem is that quizzes lock after you complete the course. Obviously, changing results after the end of the course is undesirable, but the ability to look through tests at at later date would be nice. I think this is a Coursera problem though, not course-specific.

Great course for anyone who is new to computer programming and wants to learn Python. This course covers Python 2.XX version which is good. For folks who already know other programming languages; you might want to consider other advanced Python courses or opt for advanced Python courses by Prof. Severance. Great Teacher

Thank you for the course, it was very informative and the teaching methods were very understandable and easy to handle, although I had no prior experience in programming so i have literally started from scratch, but I found myself able to deal with the assignments and understanding the different topics of the language!

Amazing course...Learnt the basics of python programming. The instructor seemed to have good experience in programming field and had vast knowledge of programming. His teaching was great.. I love the way he taught and explained the concepts which are somewhat difficult to grasp at first with so ease and great examples.

Dear my beloved instructors,

My name is Islam, I'm from Egypt. I'd really want to thank you so much towards your grate efforts. I've learnt a lot from your lectures, it was really effective and it helped me so much. I wish I could meet you soon and teach me more. Thanks a lot.

sincerely,

This course help me to build my python knowledge. It is best course from COURSERA platform. Mr.Chuck is the best for teaching python. This course help me to join in my career . Sometime I had questions about python, but this is the course that answered all of them . Finally, I recommend this course for studying python.

It is very well planned course for people who are just starting Python Programming. The assignments and quizzes are well set and it helps in evaluating ourselves how much we have learnt from the course. A very good course that I will recommend to every beginner who wants to start learning Python Programming. Thank You.

I am working as faculty in Engineering, i know java, c++, and c programming languages surprisingly i was happy while learning python supporting by my management. i am feeling happy programming in python rather than well known programming languages yet. i hope i may work on python in the future as developerin my career

I've made several attempts (over the last 20years) at learning programming languages and theyve all left me intimidated and overwhelmed. For the first time I'm gonna walk away from finishing a course and feel empowered. I am excited to see what else I could do with a computer. Thanks Charles! You made a big difference!

I love this course. This is my first course on coursera as well as 1st in programming language. This help me to enhance my skill. I enjoy learning here. If anybody fearing from coding, programming etc. you should definitely join this course. And lastly thanks all for making such helpful and informative learning course.

Very good course at breaking down the basic principles of Python programming and getting someone who has ZERO programming background started on learning a completely new language. I loved the way the videos take you through things step by step and the course resources are invaluable. Thanks for a great starter package!

This course is great! Prof. Severance will walk you through all the basic concepts and capabilities of all programming languages in a simple and understandable way, it doesn't matter if you have previous experience or not. He'll even throw in a couple scifi and Michigan jokes to make the thing more entertaining, thanks

I've done several online courses in the last years, most of them in Coursera, but Dr Chuck's teaching work have been my greatest experience, starting with Internet History, technology and security, back in 2013.

My very best regards to Dr Charles R. Severance and a great CHAPEAUX for him and his enormous work!!

Professor will start teaching you from the basic so if you want to start programming its the best first step to take also this course is free so what we want because at other places you have to pay that too you wont get such a high quality of knowledge so go for it and choose this one to get yourself into programming.

Wonderful Course ! I am so glad to get a teacher like Dr. Charles for this course! Very clear concepts explained in a way even beginners can understand! The assignments also tested the key concepts And as Dr. Chuck said , this is only half of the entire big picture and I'm taking the next course Data structures also.

this course is extremely suitable for an individual who does not know anything about python. but after i learned the course . it seems like a litter bit of easy. i commend that at the final of the course. the text should tend to more difficult so that people who learn this course can actually improve programming skill

Amazing Course. The auto grader, while a bit frustrating at times (through no fault of its own ;P), is an amazing tool that we got to use to actually test our codes on. Prof. Charles has a unique way of teaching and Ive grown fond of it. Im loving it so far and definitely wish to proceed futhur and gain more knowledge

This was an amazing journey to programming with Python for everybody, very detailed and step by step examples from Professor Mr Chuck. will definitely continue with more lessons and invite more people to follow up with the online courses.

Continue your excellent work with the same passion for sharing the knowledge!!!!!

I have to admit that Dr Chuck is one of the best lecturer's that I have come across on the Coursera platform. He takes his time to explain concepts, relates it with real world examples, cracks jokes, and gives you the VR feeling "it's like he's seated across your desk". I recommend this to anyone curious about Python.

Humorous teacher and well-organized lecture, I really enjoy when I follow the lecturer and learning python. As a student of school of Arts, I am glad that I started my first programming class and found it interesting. I would keep going on my road of programming. Thank you coursera for giving me such an amazing class!

highly recommend "Programming for Everybody (Getting Started with Python)" to anyone who is interested in learning programming. The course provides an excellent foundation for further study in computer science and is also a valuable asset for anyone who wants to automate repetitive tasks or analyze data using Python.

A really great experience! Difficult and challenging, yet rewarding at the same time. The assignments are more like fun puzzles than dull homework, and the lectures are entertaining and informative. A great course that keeps you engaged and motivated to keep going even when things get tough.

Thank you, Dr. Severance!
