About the Course

This course will introduce the core data structures of the Python programming language. We will move past the basics of procedural programming and explore how we can use the Python built-in data structures such as lists, dictionaries, and tuples to perform increasingly complex data analysis. This course will cover Chapters 6-10 of the textbook “Python for Everybody”. This course covers Python 3....

I feel incredible that I knew almost nothing about programming just a month ago. Now I have done two of the courses of the specialization and I can actually understand other basic codes. Great course!

Excellent course. I feel that I learned a lot of very useful material. It was challenging but not to intimidating. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to expand their knowledge of Python.

I heard that Python is a very powerful language, but things I have learnt in this course proves that Python is indeed an Elegant and powerful programming language.

It was a fun and interesting learning experience, Assignments were challenging.

Excellent explanation of concepts! I enjoyed it.

A great course on data structures to begin with as it includes all the essential details of the data structures and the instructor i.e. dr. chuck is very good and clears all the misconceptions within the lectures , the bonus of each chapter also gives knowledge about important basic things.

I took this course as part of the Python for Everybody Specialization in Coursera, and is the second course for that class, I loved the way every single topic is given, also the reading material is really complete, so if you combine both (reading and videos) you will reallz enjoy the course

I liked the course and how the content is divided into chunks, making learning easier and having immediate feedback before it is too late. I would just add some more optional assignments to hone in the concepts. I also enjoyed very much the bonus interviews, they give life to the subject!

Dr Chuck is great at what he does, and truly enjoys his work. This makes a great difference as a student. This is a solid introduction to Python's DataStructures and i really enjoyed the class. Quizzes and assignments were very organised and made sure I didn't miss anything from the class.

The python data structure is really great. Dr. Chuck is really great. He is one of the best instructors I met. The course materials are perfect lectures, assignments, quiz everything is great. It is good for everyone as a beginner and for anyone who wants to deepen their skills in python.

Great course to learn about python data structures in file, string, list, dictionary and tuples. It start from solving a problem with string, then move on to list, dict and tuple gradually by revisiting the same problem again and how to use the more advanced method we learn along the way.

Love this course and the textbook that it uses. The videos really tie in the textbook so that pretty much everything you might have questions about is explained and worked through. It has made learning python3 easier than I thought it would be for someone with no programming experience!!

it's not too difficult to follow and the quiz and assignments help greatly to understand the materials. I like how he shows the process of solving a problem including his own mistakes and correcting them in videos. Very helpful and enjoyable compared to other online lectures. Thank you!

Excelente curso, lo que mas resalta es la dedicación y la emoción que le pone el Dr.Chuck y eso transmite bastante y hace que el aprendizaje sea mas dinámico y no sea para nada aburrido. Es un curso bastante básico y creo que con otros cursos y leyendo libros complementas el aprendizaje

This is the best thing that I have ever done. I said this in the review of the first course and again I am saying this. This is only because of Dr. Charles. He is a brilliant teacher and also a brilliant person. If you really want to learn python just go for it. One of the best courses.

The Python Data Structures course is a very good one. The material is presented in structured manner. The the way Dr Charles Severance presented the theory is brilliant. I highly recommend this course for Python beginners or who was not successful with other Python courses (as myself).

Python data structures is a really helpful class to learn the basics of python and apply them in real world.

This course definitely elevated my interest in python and I would find ways to use it at my work.

This course also encouraged me to learn more of python by taking more courses.

I first took this class just as some kind of quick refresher of basic python... but I got totally hook with this second course!

I really like the practical orientation of that specialization so far. It's sometime a bit cheesy but it's such a well design MOOC. I definitively recommend it!

excellent course. very well structured and well explain. the exercises are just at the right difficulty. But i think you should have some basic understanding on programming. I belive before taking this course. the student should understand what algorithm is, and how machine calculates.

Really amazing course. Charles Severance is a wonderful teacher and the exercises really help to consolidate the material that he teaches. Coding initially seemed like an intimidating task, and now I feel proficient at the basics and ready to continue writing scripts and learning more.

This course was challenging, but I enjoyed the overall classes. It was beneficial to manage my time and learning phase; it also helped me think of the process and materials I've been learning from the system and apply those skills to each chapter: great instructor and course material.

Great introduction to data structures in python. Lectures pace is good and materials are well designed to learn the basics. Highly recommend it if you want an introductory course to the topic but it might be slow if you already master the concepts and want a more intermediate course.

Awesome explanation by the instructor. The method with he teaches will surely help the beginners to grasp any concept easily. However, having known a little python, i think there should be videos regarding exactly how the data structures are laid into the memory. Overall its perfect!

This was a great course but i have one big problem that encountered me

Dr Chuck reads the code from power point sheets and even if there was a worked example he is only read the code and run yes he explain it but i need to learn how and why i write this code not just see it and run it

I spent more time on this course than the getting start with python course. Even though I can finish the quits and assignments after watching the videos, I highly recommend the book for this course. There are some tips that are not mentioned in the videos, but they are very practical.
