Easy to follow and not boring. The instructor breaks things down in simple form. The Coursera platform is sometimes a bit quirky but otherwise the content in this course I thought was quite excellent.

It was a great course. It was challenging yet still fun. Discussion forums were helpful. I definitely need to go through the material a couple of times.

Very well done … appropriate if you have zero programming background or as a quick intro to Phython basics if you have some development under your belt.
