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!

Just like the previous class on these Specialization. The teaching method and the dynamics of the class is very enjoyable. Finally, I am learning Python without the suffering.

Excellent course, excellent teacher, excellent material.

Very elaborate explanations in a way you feel you can do it. Dr. Chuck really is a great teacher. Also the clips about the history of computing are very worthwhile and just shows how far we have come and better : how far we can get.

Now I am getting interested in this language. In the previous course, some topics seemed hard that I used to just use without a clear understanding. I think I am overcoming those problems after completing this course. Thanks a lot.

I had no previous experience with Python. I have already taken two courses (Python for Everybody and Python Data Structures), and I have found them to be extremely easy for beginners like myself. I strongly recommend these courses.

Brilliant intro to Data structures. The lectures are sufficient to understand the concepts, and the Graded exercise helps put them in practice. I will suggest attempting ALL problems from the textbook chapters as well for practice.

brilliant course. The course was so neatly laid out and the assignments and quizzes are deigned to reinforce the concepts learned in the respective chapters. The videos are not too long and you can just finish a course in 1 weekend

Charles is my main man. He does an amazing job of explaining things in such intuitive ways and you gotta love his sense of humor. Plus the course itself is suuuuper informative. They've really found a nice cadence for the material.

All credit goes to the lecturer. It was explained in a very good way. to build the base strong. I started python with strings, but now I feel like taking the basic course also like loops and functions. Thank you very much Dr Chuck.

Clarifies the difference between methods and functions, data structures, variable types. Now reading other resources on the internet makes even more sense. I feel encouraged to continue studying the rest of the course (and book).
