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.

Learning from Sir Charles Severance feels very good. He's a very good professor. I hope when I proceed to a university for my higher studies, I get a chance to learn from a professor like him :)

The course is a bit slow for someone with a programming background but it is an awesome way to make the training completely fool-proof and may cater a very little to no experience in programing.

I had no experience with any kind of programming, but in this course everything was given step by step, so it was interesting, because it was not too easy, but not so hard that you want to quit.

Good for basic Python syntax and semantics. Too basic if you already are familiar with the semantics of another programming language. Then it's better to just look up the syntax and differences.

Easy to getting started and then more challenging as I put together all the building blocks of python that I learnt from the previous chapters. Overall very well laid out videos and assignments.
