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.

Very good introduction to Python language. Short, clear, Charles explains everything in simple words and examples. For those who never worked with Python this course will be very useful. Very good job, Charles!

Good course to get started on python, the way it is explained by Charles Severance is amazing as anyone with no prior programming knowledge can easily learn, Thanks Charles and Coursera for the wonderful course

It is a very good course for the beginners as well as experienced programmers. Mr.Charles has explained the course very well and it certainly boosts the confidence of the programmer to take up complex projects.

Dr. Chuck makes it easy to wrap your head around the (initially) obtuse language of Python, that humans use to issue commands to machines. Just remember, Traceback Error is not to be feared, but to be expected!

An overall great teacher and interesting material provide a pleasant learning experience. I definetly recommend this class to anyone who like to have a structured class with the freedom to choose when to learn.

Basic and innovative. The very first lecture that introduces us "What python is" is especially interesting and fundamental. The discussion about the essence of one programming language is helpful for beginners.

Nice course! The instruction is clear and fun. I enjoy the "interaction" with Dr. Charles Severance during the lecture. And I really like the bonus videos, like interview with the creator of python every week~

A very basic beginners entry into computer programming.
If you are a beginner this is the place to start. If you have some experience then you may find this course a bit simple (but a refresher is always useful)

Excellent professor and the last problem, 5.2, was especially challenging. Great course for Python beginners, especially when bundled with CodeAcademy's Python beginner course. Highly recommend Professor Chuck.

Starts off with the most basic concepts that one needs to know before diving into the world of programming. Professor is fun and explain everything in a way that it stays with you beyond the classroom as well.

If you want to learn the fundamentals of programming in Python in a quick manner, this is the course for you. But if you already know the fundamentals, just look for a free tool to help you learn the language.
