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.

An excellent course for those who want to boost their programming abilities on Python. It tackles diverse and challenging problems, for you to practice and round out every concept. Highly recommended!

although the overall course was great but there was some lack of explanation in fewer videos altough loved the trickiness of quizzes they really force you to think out of the box

I really enjoyed the course and learned a lot. There were a few bugs scattered across the questions and assignments that put me off my stride, but overall very well put together.

Some bugs in the system made it very hard to complete a few assignments. spent more time figuring out workarounds than doing the assignments. Otherwise, I thought it was great.

Videos were helpful, and coursework was useful. Feedback from the mentors in the discussion forums is sorely lacking and rarely relevant.

A good primer to a first coding language.

Cuando se ofrece traducción automática al español, no debe traducir las instrucciones de impresión, ya que en los Quiz genera errores, pues no coincide con los String en Inglés.

Very well explained and comprehensive course overall. However, I find that module 3 is not explained well enough to facilitate understanding. The while loop and recursion part.

Good course - not only for sys admins but also for prospective software engineers. Though, the course doesn't cover everything Python has to offer. I did miss lambda-functions.

I loved the course and contents. At times, it was hard to follow. I wish there were more examples and explanations on how certain things were done. All in all, I enjoyed it.

Course is very good. Sometimes the exercises are hard and you can get stuck but they encourage you to search for answers outside, which is kind of normal in your work-life.

Christine was fantastic. I've never seen a more enthusiastic lecturer.

4/5 because some of assignments could have been better explained and the workbook had technical issues

Some of those coding exercises are not as easy to follow as I would expect, also grading exercise file-loading process complicates things a bit.

Thank you Google/Coursera.

Thats great. It is being a very good journey along with Python. If there be included more small examples for explaining the different topics will increase more interest.

Really interesting exercises that applies to everyday problems, a little complicated sometimes for people that might get their first step in IT with some basic knowledges.

It was okay, good information but not a lot of practice opportunities. Additionally, I think there could have been more videos, as the text is sometimes a bit convoluted.

A very good course to initiate with. A lil bit tough for me since I am a total beginner but overall its good ! Need a lot of practice to complete this whole till Week-4 !

It's really basic, but well done for a crash course. I feel like some topics just go too fast, without enough pratice to fix stuff, but you can always rewatch the videos.

The quiz problems was a little bit tougher. Practice inside video lectures is very minimal. I hope there will be more practice problems will be solved in video lectures.

It's a great course especially if you're just starting with python. The assignments and assessments really test your python knowledge as you progress through the course.

The course was perfectly fine and easy to understand. One little problem was that the questions asked in the test assessment were little tough than shown in the examples

Covered most of the logic, took a light dive into the complex stuff. Pretty good for a crash course but definitely tough for new learners(People who are new to coding).

it's an amazing course to have and learn the only problem I have faced is a lack of details. It could be more detailed so that beginners can relate and easily learn.

Contents were to the point. Everything is perfect in this course offered by Google except final project , which doesn't run on Google chrome but on Mozilla Firefox.

Haria falta mas material practico para poder asimilar mejor los conceptos del curso, estan muy bien explicados pero seria mejor si se tuviera que picar mas codigo.
