Well, I didn't saw the lectures completely as I was pretty familiar with the language. But for beginners this course is really good as it tests your basic understanding of the programming fundamentals in python

It is a very good course for the beginners as well as experienced programmers. Mr.Charles has explained the course very well and it certainly boosts the confidence of the programmer to take up complex projects.

Dr. Chuck makes it easy to wrap your head around the (initially) obtuse language of Python, that humans use to issue commands to machines. Just remember, Traceback Error is not to be feared, but to be expected!

An overall great teacher and interesting material provide a pleasant learning experience. I definetly recommend this class to anyone who like to have a structured class with the freedom to choose when to learn.

Basic and innovative. The very first lecture that introduces us "What python is" is especially interesting and fundamental. The discussion about the essence of one programming language is helpful for beginners.

Nice course! The instruction is clear and fun. I enjoy the "interaction" with Dr. Charles Severance during the lecture. And I really like the bonus videos, like interview with the creator of python every week~

A very basic beginners entry into computer programming.

If you are a beginner this is the place to start. If you have some experience then you may find this course a bit simple (but a refresher is always useful)

Excellent professor and the last problem, 5.2, was especially challenging. Great course for Python beginners, especially when bundled with CodeAcademy's Python beginner course. Highly recommend Professor Chuck.
