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.

Professor Charles Severance is excellent at what he is doing.

He can make even people new to coding or even general computer science concepts understand what he is teaching :)

I would really like to thank Charles Russell for delivering this in the best way possible. Tests at the end of every chapter were helpful to apply and retain what I learned.
