Had a lot of fun going through the course. As I do have many years of experience in programming, I do hope to see more challenging problems that I can "choose" to solve.

I love this class. The teacher is humor, the lesson is not so hard, and I learned quickly. The only thing that I do not like is that it needs money. I am sad about that.

Really good foundation to get started with Python. Even with a background in another language it gives all the syntax quirks this language has. Excited for the next bit!

Did not watch the videos. I have some coding experience. Simply read the book. Practiced using BBedit and the terminal. Liked the course - simple, but got the basics in.

I do not really think I could have find better course on python than this. My background is totally different but programming is becoming easy for me after this course.

For beginners is very good. For people who knows something small about programming is not worthy. In this course tou can find basics. Everything is very nice explained.
