This class was great, it was so informative and the professor is GREAT! The time required to complete the course is totally manageable, and you might find yourself completing it even faster than it's lined out, because it's so fun!

The best introduction to a programming language one can possibly imagine . The instructor was very explicit in the logical approach and took care of the basics and technicalities while switching between text editor and the prompt .

The course was very interesting. The assignments were intelligently designed and catered to the concepts taught in the lectures. For anybody who aspires to learn to program, this is the right platform for you to begin your journey.

it's very friendly for beginner(I'm at the level zero). I like this course very much. The way the teacher speak makes the programming course not boring at all. Of course I will continue my programming study with this online course.

Excelente curso introductorio para quienes no tienen ninguna experiencia en Python. El instructor es muy bueno, muy claras las explicaciones, muy buenos ejemplos. Las clases son muy entretenidas. Seguiré con los siguientes módulos.

Very beginner-oriented, but still gives a good overview of the basics in Python. Reasonable weekly time commitment and also good balance with some non-technical information like the story of the Python creator in (optional) videos.

Programming for Everybody (Getting Started with Python).This kind of open class gives me a preliminary understanding of python programming language, and I believe it will provide great opportunities and help for my future study .

I have been trying to get started with Python for a long time now. Thanks a lot for a well paced course for learning the fundamentals of python programming in a very digestible format. Can't wait to complete the rest of the course.

As a computer student i found this course very easy to learn and very welcoming towards non computer student. The instructor was also very friendly and funny at times and this has made me continue on the second part of this course.

Fantastic course.

I was a complete beginner and learned so much.

Would 100% recommend if you want to learn more about Python and are interested in programming.

Dr. Chuck (instructor) is wonderful and is very good at explaining topics.

I liked the course thought by the friendly professor.The course is definetely suggestable to those who want to acquire the basic python programming skills.I am happy that I can solve problems myself without any assistance.Thankyou

If you are beginner and have no knowledge about programming , then this course is for you . Easy to understand , fun way to learn . What are you waiting for do get started with python for everybody.

I'm very happy with this course.

Siempre fue difícil para mi entender la programación. Con "Programming for Everybody (Getting Started with Python) " Todo cambió, no solo aprendí lo básico sino que estoy haciendo mis programas para mi día a día. Lo recomiendo 100%

Programming for Everybody(getting started with python) is a wonderful course which beginners can take-up and get their basics in python. This is a part of specialization course and hence this can be used for further specialization.

I find this course to be an excellent introduction to python. The examples and metaphors used by Dr.Chuck are lucid and easy to understand. I find Dr.Chucks passion and encouragement served as a motivation to complete this course !

This course is very use full for people that doesn't have programming or technical background to start learn Python and help to understand how the computer logic run also for programmer that start to use Python from beginner level.

Excellent class! I had some on the job exposure to programming with SAS and SQL, but this was my first formal class. It really helped me understand what I am doing, and I learned new things as well. The instructor is very engaging.

Hello Charles,

Thank you very much, I personally admire the way you teach the lesson with fun and all the other efforts you put in the course. I learned a lot and now I remembered each and everything I learned during C programming.

Very good for the beginners, since I knew Java little bit it was an added advantage for doing exercises. But overall professor made it really easy to understand this course. I will strongly recommend it to start with Python basics.

From someone who didn't know much, this seems like a fairly good way to get started, the self pacing aspect is ideal. I will try to come back and rate this when I know more, and have a better understanding of where this is leading.

Excellent first course. I was able to understand the lectures, supplement my knowledge with the text book, and reinforce with exercises and quizzes.

I like that a number of topics were introduced without exhausting one at a time.

It was quite an interesting course covering mainly the book as referenced and while beginners can get hold of it too, programmers porting from different coding platforms can also catch up easily with python as taught in this course

My very first MOOC, and it totally got me hooked. The teacher is really good at explaining key concepts and the book is very useful and educational. Definitely will keep on going with the rest of the courses on this specialization.

Great course to get then basic picture of what programming is about. With this course and the book "Python for Informatics" I've learned the basics of Python very quickly and without much pain. Thanks dr. Chuck, you're the best! :)

This course was an extremely helpful introduction to programming. I have no background in this area but I found the pace and material appropriate for my level. I would encourage anyone interested in Python to enroll in this course.
