Very good introduction to basic programming. Very easy for beginners in python who have already some programming background - but still extremely useful to quickly and efficiently learn python basics.

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.

That's a great warm up for the advance python programming, it can indubitably make you hero from zero even if you just devote 1 hour a day for just 10 days

For beginners, this is a good course, but for programmers who already have a certain foundation, the course is not deep. Thank you for the courses offered.

By mistake wrote the wrong name for instructor. I wrote Dr. Chuck instead of Dr. Charles Severance. Please correct that in previous comment/review. Thanks

Tried a C course before this and glad i decided to switch over to this class, this should be how everyone learns to code, it feels just challenging enough
