It's a very helpful course for people with no programming background. Everything was very well explained. I wish this professor was teaching my programming courses when I attended U of M.

A great course if you want to learn python whether you have prior knowledge in programming or not. The instructor is such a great man , he explains everything clearly and in a simple way.

Its a good introductory course for python which quickly familiarizes you with the syntax and some of its nuances which do not exist in other programming languages like C/C++, Matlab, etc.

Very begginner friendly !

However, if you already know a programming language, this course is not for you as it goes in length over the basics of programming (syntaxe, functions, loops...)

Dr. Chuck is awesome. I wish I'd had him as my computer science instructor over twenty years ago when I was first introduced to programming. He makes learning a new language fun and easy.

I like the teacher very much because he is so humorous and intelligent. But I think the course is too easy to learn a lot of useful things. After all, thanks for the great effort!!!!!!!!!

Perfect for programming beginners. If you're already an experienced coder and want to learn Python, try subsequent courses in this specialisation as this is a very basic and foundational.
