I'm a M.D. with a great interest on Neurosciences, so this course is perfect for my future perspectives as a "basic researcher". I would love to learn more about Python, Machine Learning and Neuro-Networks.

I highly recommend this course for beginners.

It is my first foray into the world of object-oriented programming. I took this course to update my knowledge beyond VBA, in view of a very wide field of application. Charles's explanations are very detailed and deep; and promote reasoning as a tool.

Curso muy práctico empezando desde cero. Fantásticas grabaciones y presentaciones. Muy buen método de enseñanza.

Lo único que añadiría es que en los tests de preguntas, una vez evaluado, te muestre las respuestas correctas de aquellas que has fallado.

Very well explained as well as elaborated by the professor. His teaching methods are quite good such that even someone with no prior experience of coding(in any language) can interpret as well as understand. Solid 9.8/10 course. Highly recommended!!

A good course to all those people who wants to learn the python programming from scratch. It has the basic knowledge one should learn before jumping into the actual programming. And yes, felt really happy to see Guido Van Rossum for the first time :)
