Extremely basic but Dr. Chuck is so interesting that you never get bored. You can pass the course in a few days with minimum or even no programming knowledge. It's a good starting point for beginners.

It is my first foray into the world of object-oriented programming. I took this course to update my knowledge beyond VBA, in view of a very wide field of application. Charles's explanations are very detailed and deep; and promote reasoning as a tool.

Curso muy práctico empezando desde cero. Fantásticas grabaciones y presentaciones. Muy buen método de enseñanza.

Lo único que añadiría es que en los tests de preguntas, una vez evaluado, te muestre las respuestas correctas de aquellas que has fallado.

Very well explained as well as elaborated by the professor. His teaching methods are quite good such that even someone with no prior experience of coding(in any language) can interpret as well as understand. Solid 9.8/10 course. Highly recommended!!

A good course to all those people who wants to learn the python programming from scratch. It has the basic knowledge one should learn before jumping into the actual programming. And yes, felt really happy to see Guido Van Rossum for the first time :)

I really enjoyed this course a lot. Dr. Chuck is excellent at teaching and making programming interesting. I had tried learning python before from various other sources but I used to later get bored and quit. This course however was very interesting.

Learned a lot within a week! Really good teacher that explains the course well. The start can be a bit slow as it has a lot of theory, however it is well worth it and enhances your understanding of python. Will definitely continue the specialization.

I started my journey for Python with this course around 8 months ago and I can surely say the course has provided a very good foundation. Professor Charles is a great lecture. Exercises and Assignments will definitely make a student think. Thank you.
