This course was really helpful in make me understand all the topics of Python from scratch, including the slightly advanced topics, of APIs, for my level as a freshman just getting settled in college.

The syllabus of the course takes you in a roller-coaster ride.

From basic level to advance level and you won't feel any trouble nor hesitate a bit.

It's easy, it's vast, and it's really usefull.

Online videos are fine. But I wrote very little code and I am not satisfied with the active learning part. On top, TA's answers on my questions or other questions were inadequate or there were no replies at all.

The course is good and it explained fundamentals simply and in a good way. but there are some important parts that was not explained such as potting libraries, it was prepared for students of the class to use.

I think the course is too hard to understand for some beginners like me, it takes too much time for me to replay each video. There is also some syntax that wasn't told in the video but appeared on Hands-on.

The specialization covering this leads into having to purchase a cloud account, I would say this course is great for learning python, but the specialization is horrible because it seems to be a money trap.

As a beginner, this course was quite tough to follow. I felt like all of the concepts should have been covered a bit more extensively. The end assignment was quite daunting but in the end it was manageable.

The course material is great. As for the submission portion, I think it can be better structured. The course doesn't cover dashboards yet some knowledge of them is required in order to submit the assignment

It would be nice to have a summarization video before the quizzes. This course is covering a lot of ground in between weeks and it is easy to forget things or get wires crossed over the course of a "week"

Really easy, even for a beginner. It doesn't challenge a learner to learn more on his own. Assignments are like spoon-fed to the learner. There is a strong need to add better and challenging assignments.

Everything about the course was good apart from the final question in week 5. A lot of people had problems with this because it was too confusing. It really needs a video, or explanation on how to do it.

This course assumes some base knowledge, which can be challenging for someone who's inexperienced. Also, the final project includes some coding that wasn't covered in the course, which can be confusing.

Good course. However the current IBM watson environment differs from the course instructions. Thats making it more of a trial and error path to end up at the same place as the instructions tell you to.

Some of the answers were wrong in the course. Pretty good course for the beginners but not that on spot. And the interactive labs were just the video courses. Maybe a bit more. Not really that useful

It seems, somewhere, as some steps are missing and the courses are organized by different person with different fastness and diffciculty level.

I had difficulties to follow the upgrades of the weeks.

The content are not easy. you need to read more from outsources to increase the knowledge. Then as a second step, you need to practice a lot. Third, without practice you can not increase your skills.

I observed mistakes here and there, there are no proper instructions. instructors don't answer in the forums. you will have your questions unanswered fro weeks. course content could be much better.

The beginning of this course was pretty solid, but it got progressively more shallow as the course went on. I'm disappointed because I feel like the more advanced topics were kind of glossed over.

Sir, Mainly I was looking for NUMPY and PANDAS but I could not find that much content in the same. After completing this course I am not able to remember and apply pandas and NumPy any library.

I like the choice of topics, makes sense from the beginning.

However the labs are too easy and repetetive, would be prefer to have to write the code myself based on what I learned in the videos.

There are not many useful information in this course because for example, there are much more numpy and padnas use cases but there are only two or three methods I could learn from this course.

In the course the basics of python are explained well. However, there are barely any assignments where you really need to work with data yourself. Even the last assigment doesn't ask for lot.

It went way too fast and didn't explain any conventions. I have a year of python experience and some of this even went too fast for me. It does, however, have a load of useful information!

Last weeks included far to little actual programming exercises. You only learn programming by doing it and going trough alot of demos is good but not a substitute for actual programming.

The course content was good but it was overwhelming for the beginners like me. The video presentation was good and easy to understand but programs in hands-on-lab were difficult to solve.

When you are a novice it can be quite confusing to get what is happening. The explanations are quick and brief, sometimes leaving you wondering how you are supposed to do the assignments.

The course is fast paced with so less practical and interaction. It can improve by diving a little deeper in each sub-topics and making it better through effective use of the laboratory.
