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....

Very good crash course. Considering myself not a Python novice, maybe intermediate level, I even learned something new. Don't expect to be a Python expert after this, though, as it is a crash course.

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.

This crash course helps me so much, as I understand 90% of how LLMs work (from my degrees), but I never cared to learn coding/programming except... javascript and html 2.0? It was awhile ago.

Starts out with easy problems. Then as it gets into lists and dictionaries, you begin to see the difficulty rise. The Word Cloud problem at the end is very useful script to use in daily life.

All of the info was well presented and examples were simple enough, save for one or two, but the instructor's positivity and motivation were essential during times when I considered stopping.

This is a good starter course, but will not teach you everything you need to know. You will need to continue learning and practicing in order to really use Python, but this was a great intro.

Everything was Awesome. Only thing which I don't like, a bit, was practice exercises as some them has very confusing question statements. Except that everything was straightforward and simple

The course was presented in a very easy to understand and step-by-step. A lot of examples were given too. Does not mean this course is easy. It will be challenging while fun at the same time.

The course is really "Google" standard. Although the Contents vary from easy to tough the instructor was very good ,energetic and exciting. She didn't let me feel bored and was very thorough.

Great course - the lectures go through the basics - but then the challenge questions and assignments always make you think - or find out something else to further your knowledge - Excellent

I mainly want to commend the instructor of this course. She made sure the videos were interesting and interactive even though it was just a video. Also, the examples were very explanatory.
