I think Mr Severance knows his audience very well so that he could clear every single point where there might be a misunderstanding. Great teacher, great course! Couldn’t recommend it more to the beginners like me.

This course was really helpful. As I had knowledge of java and a bit of c programming , I found it quite similar to some extent. These basic building blocks will surely prove to be fruitful for advance Python coding
