As an un-initiated person, I found this course very educative . It gives some crucial insights ( for example, the fact that " = " is dynamic and not static as in math, more like a left-facing arrow) which are key to dispel the "I don't get any of this" cloud in the beginning

I am very pleased taking this course by Charles Russell Severance ,I want to thank him so much for giving this amazing language and I want to thank him for the way he was teaching it was fun and very friendly and I'll hope we will continue with other courses and GOD BLESS YOU!!

Course was great Because the instructor was awesome. Dr. Chuck is just awesome and he taught everything very clearly and the great thing is that he assumed that everyone is a newbie. He explained everything in a simple manner and it gives you a strong foundation for programming

I loved it. The style of the instructor impressed me. For Beginner it is a superb course. For a guy who knows some about programmings (basically, have idea about another language, attempting python as a new language) it is best. I recommend this for an easy and effective start.

Dr. Chuck really made my first introduction to programming with Python enjoyable! The online format was great and provided the flexibility I needed. I would encourage anyone to take this course through Coursera who is looking to learn the foundations of programming with Python,

I had a rudimentary knowledge in coding before i started this course. but i must say the way the material is organized and how the quizzes are set is of nearly perfect difficulty level where you dont feel intimidated by the challenge of coding and don't find it too easy either.

This Course is really Great and I enjoyed it very much.Thanks to Walchand Institute of Technology Who sponsored this course to me and I personally recommend this course for those who really want to learn python from Begining.Thanks to Coursera and University Of Michigan....!!!!

I never thought Python Programming would be that easy for beginners. And I like each and every seminar given by Dr.Chunk, the quiz's and program's given for us to solve made me happy and attentive all the time. Thank you Programming for Everybody for this wonderful opportunity.

Dr. Chuck is really an interesting and erudite teacher, who totally impressed me that learning a new programming language can be so great and delightful. Hope I can keep digging until I am capable of more advanced skills. Can't wait to attend more classes of Dr. Chuck. Go blue!

A very insightful course especially for ones with little to no background of Python or any programming language! Also, credits to Dr.C.Severance who kept the sessions very lively and the general learning environment light and positive without compromising on quality of content!

Excellent course. I've had minimal exposure with Python up to this point, but this class has made me familiar enough that I can read basic programs and code as well. Of course I would not say that I am an expert programmer, but I am certainly on my way towards being proficient.

This course was very clear and easy to follow. The teacher's humor and enthusiasm made taking this course an incredibly enjoyable experience. Coming from no previous programming experience, I believe this course helped me gain a very clear understanding of the basics of python.

This course was really helpful for me as i was not knowing a single word of python.

This course help us to lear from basic

I have control flow of Language , conditional operators , functions and many things in this course and eagerly waiting for next course of my speacialization

Very help explanationa and metaphor for illustrate how a bunch of codes are excuate.

When I first started to read a python book to learn things, it was difficult for me to understand how the code runs. Flowchart and real person explantation help me to understand the sequenceso.

Fantastic course! This fit nicely with my work life balance as a full time engineer. Dr. Severance taught at a pace which kept me engaged while still providing pertinent information. I anticipate the curriculum taught in this specialization will mirror solutions to real issues.

The material is well packaged and presented for learners with no prior coding knowledge or experience. The instructor has a pleasant, positive demeanor - he speaks clearly and concisely using vocabulary and concepts that can reach a wide audience effectively. Would recommend!

It's total a beginning course. Don't be afraid of can't understand. It's pretty easy and interesting. Professor Charles is very nice and teaches in detail. Quiz and homework are really helpful. I believe everyone can enjoy this course and want to go through the next process lol

This is a must take course for those who just started Python or who are at the basic-mid level. The instructor knows how to make the course interesting and easy. But make sure to complete the whole specialization along with reading the book (python for informatics) in parallel.

I highly enjoyed this course. The workload was just enough to keep me busy but short enough that I could work around my busy schedule.

Being a novice, I learned quite a bit and has made programming and Python much less intimidating. I think i'm ready to tackle the next course.

Really good for beginners and great professor. The professor possesses a deep mastery of Python and programming principles, which is evident in every lecture. But what truly sets it apart is his ability to break down complex concepts into digestible, easy-to-understand chunks.

A great start to learning python but I strongly suggest spending time on your own familiarizing yourself with the basics and not just relying on this course. The course is a good start but there is much more to learn at an introductory level than what is taught in this course.

This was my first time in Coursera , I know a little basics of python but my all concepts get cleared from this course and I am very excited to learn more about python and learn more from the excellent instructor Dr chuck it was very fun learning with him. Thank you Coursera

This has been the most elaborate and easy to learn online course I've ever undertaken and all credit goes to Charles Severance Ph.D. and his team for putting together such great content. Last but not least, thanks to the Coursera team and platform for the wonderful initiative.

I want to thank Coursera and the University of Michigan for this course, it was my first beginning in Python, at some moments I wanted to leave this course but I resisted till the end, I'm so happy to succeed in this course. That will helps me with my PhD. Thanks by my heart.

Loved this course. I am continuing on in the specialization. This is a great introduction to the language. I feel very comfortable with my new base of knowledge thanks to this course. So much better then just following a book. The lecture videos really made some ideas sink in.
