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.

This was a very useful course in building a solid working knowledge of python when dealing with basic data. Prof Severance has an ideal disposition for teaching, and exibits the expertise you hope for from an online instructor. Real deal.

Awesome Course. This was my first course on Coursera and I loved the journey which I think was possible only due to Prof. Charles Russell Severance. I love the way he teaches and the energy he contains to live the life and learn. Cheers!!

Again, Dr. Chuck(Charles Severance) is a great instructor! I wish all people who wants to learn programming has him as a mentor. Very high quality course with good(means not easy) assigments, fun, great English and certificate at the end.

This course gave me in depth understanding of the concepts in Python Data Structures.

The course is designed in a progressive manner and is well-taught by the instructor.

I'd great time learning new concepts and adding them to my skill-set.

good programming intro lecture. i've have pretty much industrial knowledge of it, and while taking it as a review course, still find some parts deserves thinking deeper. Also find the relevant author interview section quite interesting :)

Another awesome course with Dr. Chuck! Even if you have no previous programming knowledge, Dr. Chuck leads you gently into it, his explanations are extremely clear and precise, and he's so fun! Looking forward to the next Python course :)

I congratulate me on this milestone. I know I am not there yet and probably will have to revisit materials to remember a lot of things from courses 1 and 2, but I am proud I passed my assignments, I am not stuck and I am able to advance.

The material is presented in a very simplified manner. The assignments support the cause of study material nicely. Dr. Chuck has ensured it that even the slightly complex parts become comfortable for toddlers in the field of programming.

This is my 2nd MOOC course and also 2nd Python course. It was a great course. It explained concepts well and best thing about this course is that it doesn't explain every details and it let you do the hard work and not being spoon-feed.

These online courses are very well designed. I gave u coding long time ago. In this pandemic quarantine, I thought let's give it a shot again. And these courses have got me into coding again. I've lost my apathy thanks to these courses.

This course is a good introduction to Python data structures for beginners, for experienced programmers may require a little patience, but will give you a good overview of how things are handled in Python different for example from Java

By the end of the course all the hours of debugging begin to make sense. The course is consistent with the first of the series with regard to structure and support. Very effective in delivering the basics of data structures in python.
