About the Course

This course is designed to teach you the foundations in order to write simple programs in Python using the most common structures. No previous exposure to programming is needed. By the end of this course, you will understand the benefits of programming in IT roles; understand basic Python syntax; explore different code editors and developer environments; be able to write simple programs using Python; figure out how the building blocks of programming fit together; and combine all of this knowledge to solve a complex programming problem. We'll start off by diving into the basics of writing a computer program. Along the way, you’ll get hands-on experience with programming concepts through interactive exercises and real-world examples. You’ll quickly start to see how computers can perform a multitude of tasks — you just have to write code that tells them what to do....

This is actually a really great start for beginners in python. I am an intermediate python developer so for me it was too basic, but still a nice refresher for all the basics that we sometimes forget.

It was very good experience to learn Python from Coursera. The most important thing to learn any language/technology is to have very good understanding of the basic concepts. Same approach is carried out by Coursera. Thanks!!

I love the way the material was presented. There is a good balance between instruction and hands-on practice to ensure the concepts are comprehended and to ensure they may be applied and useful in solving real life problems.

Wish I found this course back when I was first learning on CodeAcademy. Despite professionally coding in Python for several years now, I still got a lot out of this course. Good balance of instruction and practical exercises.

Having an experienced programmer teach me the basics of python programming opened my eyes to a lot of concepts I didn't seem to notice while just learning on my own. Thanks to Coursera and Google for this awesome opportunity.

Very straightforward in easy to consume blocks. While I did go quickly through this course due to some previous knowledge with Python, this course helped reinforce different topics that I may have been iffy with in the past.

Great introduction to Python programming. The difficulty increases with every week, albeit not an tremendous increment, it was doable with some trials and errors. Don't be afraid to ask for help if you're stuck at one point

Cristine was a very energetic and descriptive instructor for me. Her facial expressions and her smile made the course interesting throughout all the weeks. Thankyou Cristine and Google Team for organizing this course for us.

This course so far is deeper than any ever given on any website about learning python introduction.

Quiz is more challanging that always took me more than 1 hours to solving 1 or 2 programming quiz. Thanks you for the course

Excellent course, it was really fun to do it, I loved the instructor, she was a great motivational aspect. However I don't believe it's for absolute beginners. Some parts were a bit complicated if you had no prior knowledge.

This course is very useful for anyone who wants to learn the basic concepts of python and also for those who are new to programming in general. Moreover, some intermediate to advanced level concepts are explained very well.

An excellent presentation of the Python language. It also covered object-oriented programming which is sadly lacking in many introductory courses.

The teacher was clear, eloquent and funny - really appreciated this course!

After learning python from 2 other avenues, I really needed to find somewhere to give me coding challenges. This course both taught me new things and gave me a few good challenges to get more coding experience with Python.

Excelente curso para iniciar con la programación. Python es un programa muy intuitivo, es importante saber un poco de lógica para esto, y es suficiente, como lo repitieron a lo largo del curso, la practica hará que mejores.

Great course for developing strong foundation in fundamental programming concepts. Especially when it comes to string and data manipulation. The course offers optional sections for recursion and object oriented principles.

Good Course to clear your basic concepts. It was good for me because I had prior knowledge about python and OOPs concepts. It was just like a revision for me. You can take this course and refresh your Python coding skills.

The course is super easy to understand. Coursera has provided good platform to perform the coding and discuss the problems. There should be more courses by Google on Coursera covering different aspects of Computer Science.

I really liked the course and the teaching style! BUT! Why did you remove the block about classes? Too bad! I heard that the old course had a whole block about classes, with detailed explanations, exercises, and a test :(
