This course kept me going for the full 7 weeks which in the past has been very difficult for me to keep going till the end! Hopefully, just the beginning of python for me!

I was already well into lessons on another platform, but Prof. Severence does a great job of explaining "why" something works instead of just the syntax required to do it.

The Lecturer was very clear about the topic and very easy to follow. The course materials are also very easy to understand with little or no prior knowledge of programming
