Very challenging, but good course. I've been programming in R for over a year, but there were still some things for me to pick up in this class. Assignments were a challenge, but satisfying to tackle.

"R Programming" forces you to dive in deep.
These skills serve as a strong basis for the rest of the data science specialization.
Material is in depth, but presented clearly. Highly recommended!

A good course covering the basics of R, but thought the speed was a bit too high for a few concepts.

Course was good but i think more information should be added given the importance of this language .

Challenging for those without programming experience. But with hard work and forum, you can do it.

One problem is that the programming assignments are not much related to the corresponding lecture.

I think as new programmers we should get a bit more hints while doing the programming assignments

The lectures are very informative and the exams are challenging, at least for a beginner like me.

I think some programming assignment could not be solved based on the lessons thaught previously.

The lessons were too long and overwhelming to those who are new to the course. But it is useful.

It's very good for a first time programming in R course, but it needs more than 4 weeks I think.

Very good foundational course. The assignments are tough and they set you thinking and learning.

Assignments were tougher than what were taught in videos/lectures, but that is how it should be.

i think the course could have been extended to more than 4 weeks just to engage in more practice

Some of the weeks do not give anywhere near the needed information to complete the assignments!

This a great course, but YOU NEED TO MAKE easier assignments, because they extremely difficult.

Gives a good introduction to R. Advised to be followed up by application related courses for R.

Good course. While, project assignment is too hard comparing with what I've learned in lecture.

R programming is a good course but it took me time ~ 4 months to complete as it is new for me.

It is a very worthwhile class, but I think the assignment is a little harder than the lecture.

The course is good for someone with no background of programming. But it is not very rigorous.

Very good lectures. Sometimes the gap between learning material and assignment is quite big.
