Great course. Professor Chuck Severance really makes you understand the whole concept, the material is consistent and well-structured and the interviews - Computing Conversations - with important figures of Technology are insightful (Massimo Banzi - Arduino; Guido van Rossum - Python; Pooja Sankar - Piazza)

Un curso muy útil para aprender Python des de 0.

Contenido muy didáctico y muy bien explicado!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Very usefull course for learning Python with no previous experience.

Very didactic content and with well explained classes.

Thanks Dr. Severance!

This course is really well structured for any beginner wanting to get started on coding. Having had a some background to coding there were quite a few key elements I did not know. So I am very happy with its flow and teaching method and it truelly is a good beginner course to Python as stated in the Title.

This course was really very interesting. I liked the course structure and the teaching style of Mr Chuck. Assignments and exercises in between the chapters were very interesting and were very effective. Overall wonderfully experience with this course and I would like to continue further to the second part.

I liked this course a lot. I think it gave me a pretty strong basis to start deepening my knowledge in the field of programming even more. Furthermore, the teacher explains the concepts in a very clear manner and the book provided is a very valid instrument to deepen what has been said during the lessons.

This is an excellent platform where excellence is a tradition! Thanks to the very inspiring, impressive, and very techie facilitator, Dr. Chuck! This is such a very good resource for learning python. I am going to recommend this resource to my colleagues and close friends! Keep up the good work, Dr. Chuck!

although it was an online class , but the way it was presented made it interactive and interesting , and was able to pay attention from the start till end.

For someone with finance background with zero programming experience , i was able to follow and understand what was taught and follow through.

Good job !

Thank you, University of Michigan. I understand that the course can be slow-paced, even for myself. However, the slow pace allowed me to grasp the concepts of python: indentation is crucial, how to properly format loops, etc. which was great coming from C++. I look forward to continuing the specialisation.

The course is excellent - I started with no knowledge of either Python or coding in general, and I thought this was a great introduction. It is quite slow-moving, so I wouldn't recommend it for anyone with prior knowledge on the subject, but I would recommend this course very highly for absolute beginners.

I was complete noob before getting started with this course. But after completing all the assignments and the practicing all the exercises behind textbook now i might be able to read some basic codes and be able to understand them. Thank you Charles Severance, for creating such a nice course for beginners.

Its a wonderful Course and the tutor not only is experienced,has a good idea about the materials but also keeps the students engaging. You would never stop the course midway. The tuutor exactly knows to teach a beginner. This is definitely the course you were looking for if you are beginner in promgramming

The simplified approach was great. This is a better way to teach programming than when I learn C decades ago. Had the professor taken the basic approach taken in this class instead of overwhelming individuals with computational math problems from the start, I would have continued down the programming path.

Thank you for providing useful materials for who does not know any programming. I'm very interested in this course and i'm going to continue educating myself in Python which opened new window in my IT world. And special thanks for Dr. Severance who made this challenging course easy to learn and understand.

Great ! Les bases de Python expliquées simplement, avec quelques petits programmes pas toujours si simples que cela à écrire. Le cours n'est pas traduit en français mais il est compréhensible meme pour une française pas vraiment douée en anglais.

Je passe au suivant 'Python Data structure'

Thanks Dr Chuck !

Never thought I would enjoy programming as I just believed my brain didn't work that way, but how wrong was I. I am simply amazed at how well the instructor subtly but quickly builds on previous slides to increase your understanding so that after six weeks you thoroughly grasp the very basic fundamentals.

This Course I learn many things like basic syntax ,type convertions, contions statements,loop statements,error handling(try,except) and Functions I'm really Happy with that, But Going forward I need some advance topic such as classes and object as well as increase many small exmples and more assignments.

It does what the title says it does. When Peter (the instructor) says that this course assumes you have zero programming knowledge, he delivers the lectures with that premise. This made the learning experience intuitive and pleasant. I would highly recommend it to everyone who wants to start programming.

This is my first online course on Coursera and I think I made good start. Course is very informative and easy to understand. Instructor is just perfect. Before I took in person classes of C/C++ but prof was so boring and had monotonous voice, however prof. Charles was so funny while explaining some terms.

Excellent course ! Dr. Charles Severance is a conscientious teacher. He gives the clear and funny examples and keeps encouraging learners. The lessons are well-structured and the assignments following the lessons require the ability to apply the functions. I highly recommend this course for all beginners.

This is the best course for those who do not have any prior knowledge in programming and python. One thing which take my whole attention toward this course is the way of teaching. I think its hard to fined someone who gets bored with this professor. I suggest this course to every beginner in programming.

The course instructor is very patient. Although I am an advanced beginner the quiz questions were sometimes tricky. I like the attitude of the instructor when he says that he wants us to become teachers and spread the knowledge that we have gained through this course to others.

Thank you for a fresh start!

Before learning this course, I dont know anything about programming.But really, the way Professor.Chuck delivered the concept of python from scratch helped me to do coding and kindled the interest to do next course.Thank you Professor.Now i am confident to do coding from expressions upto loops in Python..

Really really good course. I am a complete beginner and I found the difficulty of the course to be just right. Challenging but engaging. Dr. Charles made the lessons very easy to understand. He's occasionally funny too! Assignments were useful and I've learned a lot in this introductory course. Thank you!

I would recommend this course to everyone who wants to learn to programme. Although I'm tech-savvy, I had no prior knowledge of the software and also I'm not from a STEM background. Even then, I swiftly completed this course while developing simple yet substantial programmes. Thank you, Charles Severance.

An absolutely awesome course to get your interest into python lit! The lecture is just too good, its way easier to understand the fundamentals. This course is gonna help a lot in getting a proper understanding of the what basics of python that's required. Overall a very good course if you're a beginner :>
