Good course for people who din't know anything about programming.

Those who know a lot about programming but not python may take it but I recommend to take some advanced course than this.

The course is well balanced. There are videos that explain the concepts very clearly and there are a lot of exercises that challenge your skill. A must-do course for beginners in python.

The videos are very helpful for beginners. All the examples given and the diagrammatic representations of the execution of the code are so apt for anyone to understand what the logic is.

Amazing!

Now I get closer to Python lol, with still practice, and hope there will be more interactive directions especially for assignments (some of them are a little challenging for me)

Really nice course about Python for people with no knowledge about it. Looking forward to other courses regarding Python because video lectures are very interesting, on point, and funny.
