Very good introduction to basic programming. Very easy for beginners in python who have already some programming background - but still extremely useful to quickly and efficiently learn python basics.

Great introduction to Python and programming as a whole. Everything is broken down making it easy to understand. Had zero programming experience before and this class made it easy and fun to get into.

These type of courses are far better than those which had Peer-graded assignments. At least, I don't need to rely on others.

Please try to make such type of courses as much as possible.

Outstanding class. Dr. Chuck is a top notch instructor. I just can't believe that this is something that I can do. All my life, I thought it was beyond my capabilities, but it's not!

Great course. Lays down the concept behind programming. Its not one of those courses that demand you learn infinite lines of code, rather it teaches you how to think like a programmer.
