It's an amazing course, even for beginner's who barely had any knowledge about programming. It includes exercises that teach you step-wise know how and a logical flow towards understanding python

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.

The material is presented in a way that gently challenges the learning, in way that showcases the enthusiasm of Dr. Chuck, and the joy and satisfaction of working with python.

簡單易懂 和之前相比去掉了不少冗余的部分和綴文,變得更加學術化。非常適用於初次入門計算機科學的學生。

Easy and accessible courses, very suitable for the fresh people into programming.

分かり易い授業です。以前を比べて、少し学術的な傾向があるそうです。初心者向けの講座です。

Actually, I think this course is over easy. I don't think a person with normal intellect need 7 weeks to finish this course. It just took me like 3 days to finish this course.

Great course, simply explained, lots of material useful to starters. My only issue was to start using the Code Text Editor, I need to look for something out of the suggested.

Thank you Dr. Charles Russel for giving us a fruitful introduction for Python, and I love everything about the course. I will certainly recommend my peers to join this class.

This guy did an amazing job. If you are looking to just dive into Python and its history is not going to bother you, You might want to jump right ahead onto 4th week material

This a very good curse, it contains the basics to start learning more difficult courses, also, it provides the students the abilities to practice and learn more by themselves

O instrutor é excelente, mesmo o curso não tendo a tradução para português, o professor explica de maneira tão didática que você além de aprender python, aprende inglês heeh.

I really liked the methods of learning and the quizzes and also it was fun to learn something new being a non tech student with no prior knowledge about programming language.

Great course! Simple and and beautiful. Dr. Chuck's got the best didactive out there. My only suggestion: cut the exercises into even smaller pieces of the big Python puzzle.
