It is a good course and teaches with the basic of Python so that anyone can understand it very well. Videos are good and can easily be understandable to anyone who is new to Python and Data Science.

The course was quite easy, for my taste a bit to easy. The course on creating an IBM Bucket could be better.

This course might be too easy and I think there should be more exercise for us to practice our python skill

The course material does not seem as continuous as I would prefer. Each concept seems a bit independent.

Decent intro to python. However, it could use a lot more examples to work through to get used to coding.

Not as challenging as I hoped for. Would have been nicer if had coding tests instead of theory tests.

The final assignment is more about how to use the storage of IBM then to learn how to code in Python.

I think it would be tough to catch for newbie and more explanation is needed for most of the videos.
