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....

Excellent explanation. Professor Charles kept the course from being monotonous. Learnt in depth about reading from file, sorting dictionaries and appending lists. Looking forward to learn more courses

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!

Five stars without any doubts. Material is well-explained. Instructor is great. Maybe a little lack is the number of exercises provided in the course, but they can be found somewhere else, on the internet and in some open-source book.

Thank you very much for this course 2, Dr. Chuck. I am learning a lot from your specialization courses. Lists, Dictionary and Tuples are a bit confusing but they are all important but Dr. Chuck always makes all materials fun to learn!

It's a great course. All concepts very simply explained. You sort of need to refer them again because you are learning quite a lot of things and it's a bit difficult to hold everything at once while you're completing your assignments.

Although simple it is a quite an effective course. The platform is reliable, the host is great, the assignment well calibrated and, although they made sound pointless, I quite enjoy the short students around the world videos.

Thanks!!

Dr. Charles Severence has taught me the basics of python programming in a very simplified manner and because of his lectures I am able to write my basic programmes with minimal help from internet sources and without making a mistake.

Participated in this course, I started to understand how to use python to solve some basic problems during daily life. The courses of university of Michigan taught by Dr.Chuck are very helpful for those who want to know about python.

i have some experience with Python but used this course as a refresher. Dr Chuck has an infectious attitude which makes me want to smile whenever I listen to him. i am starting course 3 now and that has some really interesting stuff.

I really became more familiar with the 'flow' of this course in this section. Thus, I ended up completing more exercises and engaging more with tutors and fellow students. Great online course, it has really cheered me up this week.

I've completed python-for-everybody course. This course teaches you about data structures in python that are list, dictionaries and tuples. and How to use and manipulate these data structures. Dr. Charles Severance is a good teacher.

Before starting this python courses, I was in no idea how a programming language would be, I just thought its some sort of codes which will be written by great person, and now I am extremely happy to be a person who knows programming

This course is definitely one to be done because the course materials just the vast horizons of the data structure concepts and the instructor is very good if followed carefully you would definitely succeed,it worked atleast for me.

This course is good for starting Python Data Structure. It's not much easy for me. I spent a lot of time to do assignments and read read read. However I gain a lot of knowledge and experience though asignments. I reccomend you guys!

Very much essential for beginners/intermediate. The instructor had taken enough time to make sure the concept of data structures in python is made clear to the learners. I truly appreciate the efforts of the professor. Thanks a ton.

Doing this course was a fun experience for me. All these new terms- dictionaries, tuples, etc. were pretty intimidating at first but turned out to be pretty easy. Dr. Chuck's delivery of course material immediately puts one at ease.

For the first time since I started learning Python, I got to use it to do something useful. This course has now opened my eyes to the wider possibilities of things I can do with Python. Many thanks to Dr Chuck and the Coursera team.

Great course that let us know how to implement data structure on file data. Everywhere else they teach the use of lists on some random, less complex data. But here they teach us to use a list, tuples, and dictionary on complex data.

I Think This Course Is All About FIle Structure of Python And How To Handle Files And Operations on File In Python Not About Data Structure So You Should Change The Name Of The Course Or You Should Change The Content Of This Course.

Very-very-very thanks! I'm a philologist, this course is a dream. Now I can make myself a frequency dictionary of the text, 20 years I wanted it. Professor Severance is brilliant. He is able to teach a Python even a bedside table :)

This course won't let you down with exercises that don't apply to what you'd really use in real life. This is clearly the best course on the subject for the beginner programmer. Really. It's seriously the best on the internet today.

DR. Chuck's teaching methodology is extremely engaging and simplistic. The exercises are very well designed. Attempting them not only strengthens our concepts but also boosts confidence in our acquired knowledge. Thankyou Dr. Chuck.

More interesting than the first course. Topics are interesting and help form a foundation for using Python. The exercises were more challenging and interesting to work, causing more thought with how the tasks needed to be completed.
