Great introduction to Python and programming as a whole. Everything is broken down making it easy to understand. Had zero programming experience before and this class made it easy and fun to get into.

Excellent, although, even without having any programming experience except some Visual Basic at school about ten years ago, in my opinion the course could have bee more difficult and the pace quicker.

Dr Chuck is a good teacher. If you are a beginner to programming and want to learn python then go for this course with closed eyes. For a veteran it may seems to be slow paced but its good to build up the foundation. Happy Programming.

This is a great course for beginners. I was already using Python for my own programming projects prior to this course but I still wanted to take it to renew my knowledge. Professor Charles Severance is now one of my favourite teachers.

I'd recommend this course because it's really easy and shows you that coding isn't as daunting as it seems to be. I would also recommend completing this in a hurry and moving on to the rest of the courses offered in the specialization.

Интересно и познавательно для тех, кто только начал изучать программирование. Для тех же, кто сам занимался и изучал какое-то время курс покажется очень легким. Собственно он и ориентирован на поверхностное изучение основ для новичков

There are may be hundreds of courses for python out there. But what makes this one the best is Prof. Charles's approach to pick up the topics to begin with, it never bores you and keeps your interest intact in the subject. Thank you.

Very nice starting course for someone with even no programming experience, if you have some experience you can go though it faster to learn the basics of python and use it for some programs. I am looking forward for the second course.
