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.

Really great course for beginners. The teacher is funny and the teaching materials are excellent. The pace is somewhat slow, but if you are taking this course next to your regular job or studies that is actually nice.

I enjoy this learning path with Dr. Severance. He made the course fun and easy to digest. I love the fact that I can learn with my own pace. I also enjoy the satisfaction from solving problems through the assignments.

This course is really excellent and inspiring. I really hope that my teachers in the really world can learn from the teaching styles of Coursera and improve their teaching which is kind of ineffective and uninspiring.

As a beginner I don't know where to start and what to practice. This course took me in a ride which helped me to learn python basics and while learning videos and resources that are available made me feel comfortable.

For folks that have never programmed this class does a really good job of explaining the basics in very understandable terms. wish it had a way to advance past basics into syntax for those that understand the basics.

Although, this was my first time with python, I was up and running with a few basic codes in as few as two classes. The instructor is amazing and I enjoyed this course. Thank you Prof. Severance and the Coursera team.

This course is perfect for starters. I've learnt some Java and C++ before, but I discovered some fun and useful ideas in this begainer's course. Thanks to Pro. Severance, again I find programming easy and interesting.

This course has really helped me to built a strong fundamental concept in Python. Charles Severance was really good at explaining the fundamental concepts. Hope to continue further Python courses with him. Thank you.

The teacher was very fun to learn from, and the course felt cohesive and easy to follow. The hands on exercises are nice, and I even experimented with my own things following his instructions. I'm excited to do more!

Getting taught the basics in a systematic way. Very good for beginners. Motivating instructor. I hope to continue learning more about python. But now I need a little break, reading dostoyevski. Thanks y'all. Spasiba.

Me parece una excelente opción para cualquier persona que no tiene ningún background de programación. Yo sí lo tengo, pero me hubiera encantado que cuando aprendí a programar hubiera sido de esta forma tan intuitiva.

a very good course for those who are just starting coding without any previous knowledge of any programming language. Also very helpful for people like me transitioning from a different programming language to python

Together with David Malan from Harvard University, Charles Severance is a genius at conveying knowledge in a compact and understandable way. The course is suitable for absolutely everybody, no matter how old you are.

This course was extremely easy to follow and the instructor was probably the best I've had. Goes into detail and explains all the mechanics so you can understand why you're doing something. Would recommend to anyone!

I had a rough experience with Python before taking this course. But this course has changed it.
Now I am curious to learn more about Python and to improve my knowledge in it.
Thanks Coursera, for this wonderful course.

Very good introduction to programming with python. Really goes in detail through the basics of programming and python. Although it covers only really basic things since there are other courses in this specialization.
