The course content is well-organized that makes students easy to follow, but there is limited amount of examples and exercises for students to learn how to apply the knowledge in real world situation.

I loved it! Dr. Chuck is extraordinary in his explanations. A great way to start on Python programming. As a person that hasn't programmed in years it was an encouraging and educational experience :-)

I think this course is quite easy for beginners. The instructor explain everything clearly, and I can review them by finishing the assignment. I believe I can write some simple Python code now.

A good introductory course. Lots of time spent explaining basic concepts with good examples. Be sure to get the book (free pdf available) and read the chapters to help you with the assignments.

Great course for absolute beginners! The people who are already familiar with programming might find the first few lectures boring and slow, but as the course progresses the pace does as well.
