I totally enjoyed learning this course, also everything was started from ground level and best for students like me who doesn't know C of coding. I would really do the specialization.

Solid introductory course with good quizzes / assignments. Really like how assignments require you to combine multiple items you have not seen together before. Keeps you on your toes!

Excellent introduction to Python and well suited for people who have not done any programming before. The pace might appear a little slow for people who already know some programming.

Proffersor Charles communicates an intro to programming for non-programmers in a very gentle and anxiety/fear free style. Making clear that anyone can learn. Which is absolutely true.

This course gets full stars because of the content and because of Professor. He made this course really interesting than what it would have become if we had to just study from a book.
