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.

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.

Great introductory level course that starts at the most basic levels. I had prior experience with C++ and breezed through the course in slightly more than a week.

Basics are perfect. Started off very well. By the time the last chapter had come, I feel that too much was spread into the last chapter. It could be split into 2.

Brilliant course, Professor Chuck is awesome. The amount of time he takes explaining the concepts is remarkable and the assignments and quizzes makes great sense.

Great course. For someone who knows a little programming, this course only took 12 hours. But it was a great intro. Going to move on the intermediate course now.

Dr. Chuck was a great instructor who used meaningful examples to illustrate the material. His delivery style was engaging for what could have been dry material.

Very good, some slight errors concerning the translations between Python 2 vs. Python 3. But other than that, very informative and great notes for learning code.

Somebody like me without any tech background was very challenging, but compared to other course that I tried, it was easiest course I believe. Thank you so much!

Самый раз для тех кто только начинает свои первые шаги в программирование, если же вы знакомы с программированием то боюсь курс не предоставит вам ничего нового.

Loved this course its pace and its instructor. My only feedback was to include real-life examples of the codes we are using to better understand them. Thank you.
