Very good introduction to basic programming. Very easy for beginners in python who have already some programming background - but still extremely useful to quickly and efficiently learn python basics.

It was an awesome course , the instructor was very good at explaining it in a (hogward) like way .It was fun, i feel like anyone who doesn't have prior knowledge on programming can learn it with ease.

These type of courses are far better than those which had Peer-graded assignments. At least, I don't need to rely on others.

Please try to make such type of courses as much as possible.
