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.

Course presentation is good. Topic selection is good. Selected Strings, Lists, tuples and Dictionaries, using these program logic can be build. Examples are good and interesting. assignments are good.

I thought this course was going to be really difficult, but the solutions to the problems were deceptively simple once you understood what was going on. I really recommend doing the video challenges and reading each line of code until you understand what is taking place.

It was an amazing journey with one of the most energetic instructor I ever saw. i love the way she teach and the way of explaining things. it was a tough journey for me as I do not form the computer science background but I finally completed and I can't be happy more.

The pace of the course and the relevancy of what we learned was prefect for this level.

This experience has made me want to learn so much more about Python, having the structure of small assignments, learning, testing, and relation to real-world examples was very helpful.

Yeah!

I have completed the course and it was a very incredible journey, I am so delighted and thankful to the Google team for supporting me and getting me to the end of the course. I will use these skills in various fields and I have to learn a lot still. Thanks, Google.

Super Awesome Teacher. Even though some parts were not explained fully but gave us hints. And problems were very challenging. So we had to do a lot of self learning which was an awesome part.

They made us to self learn and research a lot. Thanks a lot Christine and Team!

Definitely a good crash course. Although it is better to have a little hands-on experience as a pre-requisite. Amazing assignments and worth pondering over the questions. Questions are almost close to real-life scenarios and that's what makes this crash course so good!!

This is by far the most educational, well structured course I have taken. I started with little to no knowledge of python or programming in general and was able to both complete the course, and write a program I now use daily in my office. Best course I have taken yet.

It was amazing.. it may be slight difficult for beginners but don't worry it'll be smooth!!

The course covers all essential, requisite, necessary, important.. just everything for a beginner and for intermediate level programmer!!

Hard Work by Team Google on this course!!

This is definitely a great tutorial for people who would like to learn the basics of python. I am a skilled programmer but has no experience in python language. But I can really say that this is definitely well explained and can be easily understood even for beginners.

Great Instructor,Got through all the complex functions and codes with a cake walk. Now,I am quite confident over my skills in python and can work with more enthusiasm on this path.Final Project was amazing to do and it worked quite well was though but got through well

The instructor was pretty amazing, she really knew how to teach.

The practical exercises and tests were pretty good too, quite good for someone who is trying to learn.

The only problem was the final project, it provides minimum feedback on whether you are right or wrong.

Yo ya tengo una base sólida de Python aprendida en la Universidad y puedo confirmar que este curso es ideal para personas que deseen aprender desde cero un lenguaje de programación y para quienes quieran reforzar contenidos. Los videos e información son muy completos.

I really really enjoyed this course offered by Google. It's very interactive yet very easy to follow the instructor's guidelines. I'm very glad that during the very short course I've learned so many things about programming and Python specifically. Thank you, Google!

For me, It became somewhat hard when I intially given a final project in wordcloud, I researched a lot in search engine , but got nothing much, i just felt bad and rewatched some videos and started my own approach and solved it.I'm very proud of it! Thank you Coursera

GREAT COURSE!!!!

If I ending building an IT department for any company, this will be required study for all team members. It is incredibly useful and helps people to start thinking in logical steps. Python is ubiquitous and a useful skill to have in all levels of IT.

The instructor , with her enthusiasm for her job , and the bits and pieces of wit and humour made me fall in love with this course and programming in general . She did a hell of a job and I wish to thank her from the bottom of my heart for this wonderful experience .

For beginners who want to dive into coding to even those who are already programmers and want to add more knowledge, this course is great for everyone.

The teaching is good and very understandable with lots of examples and practices, its a great course by a great team

Its very well put together for beginners up to intermediate python users. I have had an amazing time with this multi-faced(videos, discussions, readings and labs) learning experience and I will definitely be coming back to Coursera for future learning opportunities.

Great comprehensive course on python where newbies with little or zero knowledge in programming can step into the programming world. The course was well-structured and well-explained with links to external sources provided. Thank you Google for creating this course.

A great introduction to the Python programming syntax, data types, conditionals, loops, and more. I really liked that several of the practice exercises were challenging and provided opportunities for a little bit of creativity. The final project was interesting too.

As someone that has previous knowledge of programming, I find this course very exciting since I lear a lot of stuff that I struggle to deal with on other programming language and help me out having a new perspective in which I can work and apply for all areas on IT.

They will go super fast because its a crash course so you need at least basic knowledge of Python. if you really don't get whats going on I advise you to go back & watch the videos again because that's what i have done for so many times but all worth it in the end.
