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.

This is the most wonderful programming course I've ever had! The first time I was told how to think in order to use all these wonderful things: while, for, None, try.

Thank You!

Great, instructional videos. The exercises are difficult but it really encourages/forces you to ensure that you understand the material, rather than regurgitating the lectures.

Good introduction for non-technical folks.

I have experience with a few languages, and it was nice to see it walk me through the syntax with progressively challenging exercises.
