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.

It was an awesome course , the instructor was very good at explaining it in a (hogward) like way .It was fun, i feel like anyone who doesn't have prior knowledge on programming can learn it with ease.

I am a beginner with zero foundation, I know nothing about computer knowledge before this. But I met such useful course content and interesting teachers! They have carefully designed the teaching content, so that even people like me who are difficult with science can continue to learn! Thank you.

Although I am proficient in Python and has been writing Python codes for last 3 years, but I still loved the way the material was presented. This is the reason for me to start this whole specialisation as I want to learn different ways to teach it to the new guys that I am going to mentor/train.

Excellent course. I spent some time reading various texts on Python, yet they rarely offered explanations of what each term meant. In this course, the deep explanations of what each part of the language covered meant was tremendously helpful in understanding what is actually possible with Python.

It was my first valuable experience at Coursera. It really enhances my programming ability and thinking beyond my posterior barrier in computer science. I will try my best to look much further. Thanks alot everyone for giving me this honorable chances to learn from great lecturers and professors.

It has been many years since high school when I had written programs in Basic, cobol, and fortran :) I'm grateful to the University of Michigan, and Professor Severance for offering COURSERA in such an easy to use format that has broken the ice for me to strive toward a much needed career change.

This course is the best course on python that I have ever seen. I tried a crash course on python by google and at first, it felt better than this course but later on, that felt too fast, and couldn't manage it but this is at the perfect speed and this is the best course on python according to me.

it was an amazing journey learning it. Especially the way the tutor simplified it so wonderfully that has changed my mindset that "Python is HARD!" This course is literally for everyone and anyone can learn Python from this and trust me if you are a beginner, I was below it! But, now, I enjoy it.

Really appreciated Dr Severance's efforts in making programme for everybody or else I wouldn't have the courage to take such a course. It's good to learn some basic concepts on the programming language and most important of all, the key ideas and concepts behind programming. Thank you so much.

It is good to learn different languages and we are programmers different languages can make our work easy. Coursera learned me to be best, They taught me like they were in front of me and with me.
I suggest everyone who wants to learn different languages then checkout Coursera for better learning.

Very Helpful and what an amazing teacher! Wishing my university had teachers like him! Absolutely amazing.
This course is great for very beginners who don't know anything about coding or how computers and codes work but it's also pretty great who know about it but might wanna brush off once more.

Unlike any other programming tutorial , this one keeps you engaging in course perfectly.
The way Dr.Charles teaches is fascinating. I had a different approach to the basics then one i learned during college education.
Don't worry if you are beginner, it's right course for you as name of course says

Being from Civil Engineering background, I had very less programming knowledge. The way Sir explained the course was excellent and his way of teaching was so lucid that I could grasp all his concepts and could pass all MCQ tests with ease. I thank him from the core of my heart for his dedication.

Great online course! Thank you very very much for the course! It's well organized. Charles explains everything in details. It's actually hard to get lost during the class. This course helps me lay down a strong programming foundation. It makes me not to scare programming anymore. Thank you again.

Fantastic introductory course for programming beginners! Dr.Chuck's videos are easy to understand, with the aid of the textbook,this is an amazing journey through Python so far! Course one is kinda straightforward, but I believe things are definitely gonna be more fun in the next couple courses!

really useful to get hand on python. the examples are great! highly recommend to install the python editor, so that while you are watching the course video, you can play the codes from slides on your own computer. That way, you can get the best out of it! Enjoy learning python, fellow classmates!

good course and great instructor by the way
he simple enough but for how have a programming background little bit
but i encourage everybody to enroll in this course to understand how to get programming classes
and it is very important skill for how's intended to teach him self programming at home

From a beginner in all computer programming software, I am absolutely thrilled having started to learn Python. The course material was manageable in terms of time, the professor's videos were clear and the exercises were very helpful. I look forward to starting the next course and getting better.

Very good course for beginners in Python. The instructor gives solid explanations in each of the chapters and it is very easy to follow. Activities are well suited for entry level developers, challenging you to think a little but not to overwhelm you. Excellent to get a solid grasp on the basics.

it was a very good and simplified course, explained in simple english with realtime examples helped to acquire the knowledge quickly. Practise is key which i am trying from internet but if you do have practise material for this course, please send me. i will try all the codes.
Dr. Chuck, you rock.

Perhaps not the most appropriate for people with some coding experience but I really wish my first programming classes were half as good as Professor Severance's classes. I strongly recommend them if you are beginner, and even if you're not, they are most fun and allow you to slowly learn Python.

I really enjoyed the Programming for Everybody course. The videos and lectures are concise and informative, and the wit and sense of humor of the instructor are a great way to engage students. As a teacher myself, I know how important these things are for creating a positive learning experience.

The course is intended to serve as an introduction to Python programming. Variables, data types, control structures (loops and conditionals), functions, and basic file handling are all covered as foundational topics in programming. The information is organized clearly and moves along rationally.

Thank you Dr. Chuck. I have learned about the foundation of python programming in this course. The course is very easily understandable, and Dr. Chuck got through it a simple way, I didn't feel any bad feelings about this course. Actually, I enjoyed every Lectures and Quiz. Thank you very much.

Really liked the course. Prof. Severance explains the concepts in a very engaging way and gives great examples. The assignments were interesting and the tool was easy to use. I enjoyed the bonus examples and interviews as well. I have a good overview of Python now. Thank you for a great course!

I enjoyed the style of the instructor, he had a good sense of humor and the videos were just the right length. I found the pace to be good. Some worked examples gave too much away I felt, but I guess you don't want people struggling. Great foundation for more Python to come (I hope!). Thank you.
