Python was my first language to learn and i'm happy that i chose this specialization course. It was thought simple and straight forward and the assignments helped me a lot to learn the course better.

A well-designed course, especially for the beginners, who are really enthusiastic and passionate about programming. It really helps you to learn from scratch and it does not require any prerequisites.

Everything about this course is exceptional. As a beginner, programming to me felt daunting and too complex. Yet this course has shown me just how easy it is for one to learn to code using python. Everything from the assignments to the lectures are done perfectly and you never feel lost. Why are you still reading this? START THE COURSE!!!!!!!

First time taking a programming course. I was able to understand the basic concepts of python codding and I am looking forward to the next course Python Data Structures. I hope to get a better understanding on how to apply python to real world situations when I conclude all the courses available.
I am very excited. Thanks Prof Chuck and CTA's.

Absolutely delighted and feeling elated after having gone through py4e. Dr. Chuck was just awesome. I havent gone through an online course in such a fast manner as this one. He is just incredibly doing justice by teaching us py4e from the scratch without any programming background. Would definitely recomment it to the beginners just like me.

This is the best course I have enrolled so far. The way he teaches is different, he encourages you to participate, put efforts, and see things differently. Furthermore, this course is more practical. In addition to this, the extra work is quite interesting i mean the office and the talks with the producers of different software and hardware.

This course was absolutely incredible! I loved the enthusiastic teacher, Charles Russell Severance and his funny way of teaching. I loved the material that he taught and how he taught it, and I think the entire 5 courses would be worth it for anyone who wishes to know a beginning programming language that could be used as a professional one!

Beginner-friendly and suitable for all who are interested in and willing to learn about programming without any prior experience. Concepts are demonstrated clearly with vivid explanations. Strongly impressed by the enthusiasm and love for his career of Prof. Charles Severance. Glad that we can go along the very first tour to Python with him.

Never thought learning python would seem so fun and easy. It is all because of how professionally this course was designed and of course the way Dr.Chuck explained every little thing in detail so that we don't miss out on any important concept. I will definitely recommend this course to my friends and colleagues interested in learning python

The instructor is amasing.. even though I have previous knowledge of programming, his way of explaining things and trying to explain the way that the program works is amasing. he is relating the way Python works with our way of thinking and that way helping us understand better how to think as a programmer.. definitely HIGHLY recommend... :)

I have a little experience from a couple of college classes programming in java and MATLAB. This course was a good, straightforward introduction to python. For those familiar with the general structures of programming (conditional statements, loops, etc.) , this course will be easy and go quickly - you may be able to finish in a week or two.

This is a fairly easy course to follow especially for someone who is trying to learn a programming language for the first time. Dr. Severance's lectures are very engaging to watch and I recommend trying out the codes that he will show you during the lectures. It will help you a lot in answering Assignment questions. Thank you Dr. Severance.

Very simple and easy to understand! Even though I had some previous knowledge of Python, Dr. Severance taught me new ways to approach problem-solving in Python, and made me enjoy myself while doing it! I 100% recommend this to anybody who wishes to get a firm grasp of programming. Regardless of your age or abilities, this course is for you.

It was a very beneficial course for me, a person hates software but meanwhile trying to learn them :) The instructor was able to take your attention to relevant and necessary topics with not just teaching you but also chatting and laughing you. I offer my personal thanks to Charles Russell Severance and I would like to be a student of him.

Charles Severance is AMAZING. I'm a complete beginner and this course really has sparked an interest in Python, I've taken many other courses and basically failed to get excited to continue learning and that was not the case with this course. Take this if you are just starting out and really need someone to break it down to simple terms.

I thoroughly enjoyed Professor Charles Severance and his Python course. With no prior coding experience, I was able to complete this course and earn the certificate. I hope to continue learning Python by taking the second part of this series in the future. I especially enjoyed the combination of videos and textbook materials for learning.

A Great beginner course! Thank Coursera and Dr. Chuck for offering such a convenient learning platform and great lectures!
Each quiz and assignment is so essential to build up the knowledge. Wish Dr. Chuck could offer a couple of optional assignment by each study week as some bonus so we could practice a little more!
Once again, thank you!

I was looking for an online course where you could get to know things like you would do in a classroom session, to my surprise coursera provided the same experience as I was looking for. It was in depth and Mr. Charles is a gem! He really wants everyone to learn. I hope more people take this course and kick start with heir career in Python.

I used to program back in high school in C++, but as the time passed, I forgot a lot of things and this course helped me recall basic logic and functions of programming. I'm a marine biologist now, and I am interested in using various programs for modelling and data analysis, and I feel I am on the right track learning the Python language.

This course is the first course I finish in Coursera, its so amaizing that I have great fun in this course and finish it in threedays.While, I may suggest my friends who will take this course in the future to learn this course with a more detailed textbook along with the Python for Informatics. Thanks, Dr.Severance and the teaching stuff.

such a great class. The class aim to give beginners a really nice and easy start so the students who are new to programming will not be intimated or frustrated. The professor is very funny and knowledgeable and make the whole class great fun. I really enjoyed the class and ready to finish the class and move on to the 2nd Python serie class.

Thank you, it was my first ever course on the Python language and I did it! Thank you, professor Charles Severance, for explanation of everything that we need to understand, especially your words on how to approach "being stuck" or frustration as to new materials. It all help me to not to worry about mistakes and just trying one more time!

one of the best courses for beginners! If you are someone who is not from a computer background, but python is needed for some of your jobs (eg: bioinformatics) this course can be a very good start to get accustomed to the functions and other basic things :) ! The professor was cool as hell and the way he taught the whole was phenomenal !

This was my first ever course on Coursers and I absolutely loved it! The instructor was so good with his unique teaching methods, and just as the title of the course suggested, it can give anyone a good grip on the basics of 'Python ' programming. Thank you so very much for this wonderful course and I hope to learn more about your courses!

Stellar course. Charles Severance is easily one of the best teachers I've seen in my life, online or face to face, period. His ability to engage the student, trivialize complex mechanisms and maintain interest all through the video medium is remarkable. I am very impressed by the overall value of this course and it gets my highest praises.
