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.

A great course with a very easy explanation. An excellent course for beginners. If you want to choose python, I consider, is the best place to start.

It's a very good course for those who have zero programming experience. I wish this existed when I was 14 years old. I could have been a coder today!
