everything was perfect except atom is no longer supported so resources to be update. Last thing was to specify what methods to use for finishing the assignments (ex5.2 have "use a while statement" specified in the prompt). everything was fun, i enjoyed struggling because it was very rewarding

Best course for begginers in python as it breaks down the language into tiny bits of pieces and allows you to recontsruct them piece by piece. Truly an honour being able learn from such an celebrated and esteemed professor. Looking forward to learning more under Dr. Charles Russell Severance.

Programming for Everybody offering this course from scratch to some basic level.It is very useful for me to learn python basic from this professor CHARLES RUSSELL SEVERANCE and also he is offering books and slides with free of cost .these free resources are very useful to learn .

Thanking you.

I really love this course. It is more relevant and accurate to the learner. Every notes and pdfs are very easy to access and the lecturing videos and syllabus are made easy to the user especially for beginners and I want to continue to learn in "The coursera" bcoz I am learning concepts here.

The course is fantastic for anyone who wants to learn python. It is focused on beginners and maybe intermediate programmers but I believe anyone can gain something from taking this course. It was simple and easy to understand and helped me understand the python syntax and help me code better.

It was very elaborate and helpful. Some tasks are a bit complicated but if you try enough times with persistence , you will succeed. When the code doesn't run even after multiple attempts; take a break, have some fresh air and try again. The feeling is amazing when you run the code perfectly.

Quero agradecer aos fundadores do Coursera, pela excelente iniciativa deste projeto, Sou estudante de engenharia elétrica e sem dúvidas participar deste curso de Python foi um divisor de água na minha vida profissional e recomendo a todos que desejam se increver em qualquer curso do Coursera.

No prior experience in any programming language. Chuck made me taste Python like one of fav daily dish. Chuck, you are a great teacher. If you havent done any coding and you want to learn Python as your first language, this cource is for you. Thanks chuck for what you are doing to this world.

As someone whom has taken programming classes while in university, I found that this class is the most intuitive introduction to programming concepts I have come across thus far. A great refresher for those of us who have not programmed in a while, and an excellent introduction for newcomers.

The course was quite good. I must mention Dr.Charles, or Chuck as we know him, for his excellent teaching skills. He made the video lectures quite fun. His bonus content was quite informative to watch too. Definitely go for it if you are interested in taking a plunge into the world of Python.

It was really great. The explanations were clear, the teaching style was refreshing. It really didnt put too much emphasis on assignments, which was great because it felt less like highschool and more like uni. I would recommend it to everyone who is starting with Python or coding in general.

-Very clear and comprehensive course videos, and those screenshots and videos of specifically how to run those codes are very helpful.

-The professor's way of teaching is humor and easy-understanding.

-Very basic and fundamental materials for start-up Python learners, so, extremely recommended!

If you want to learn programming and you are afraid that will be so difficult this course will guides you step by step and teaches you from how program works and how it is executed inside computer to write your first programming line and you will be so amazed when you see your big programs !!

Programming for Everybody (Getting Started with Python) helped me familiarize with basics of python in less than 8 hours( I have a programming background). The interactive interface along with course materials kept me involved throughout and it was over before i knew it. Dr. Chuck is awesome.

Excellent course to start learning Python or refresh already learned programming concepts. It is well structured and Dr. Severance keeps the course interesting and the student motivated. Will definitely recommend this course to other people and will continue using COURSERA as a learning tool.

This course is definitely designed for someone new to programming and python. I came from a background of programming already, but wanted to know more about Python. I think the lecture material and the way it was presented was great, and I feel like this course would benefit new programmers.

I cant believe that i just made a simple program by myself Dr Chunk is Great! and of course a big thanks to The Coursera platform which opened a way for us to learn mostly for the people like me who has willing to learn but cant afford the course fees.

I have no more words to express...

Thanks

I am very happy with the structure, the course and the somewhat playful way of presenting. The individual chapters are prepared in a bite-sized way and are easy for a newcomer to master. In the practical part, it would have been desirable to receive more feedback now and then, but THANK YOU!

A good introductory course I say. Go for it if you want to learn basics of Python from scratch with no prior exposure to any language mandate. However even if you know about Python or any other language, this course still has few new ways of looking at things.

Overall an excellent course :-)

I strongly suggest those who are new to programming kindly go through this course, its piece of cake it takes not more than 2-3 hrs to finish assignments if you follow the video modules and instructions. Loved this course big thanks to Michigan University for such content, great work guys !!

This is very interesting and helpful class! I love how the instructor break down the concepts with visual presentation and simple, straight forward instructions that make all the concepts very easy to understand. This course has help me develop into a confident learner of Python programming.

Nice clear introduction to the basics of Python. Workload each week is not onerous, so easy to go at your own pace. Quizzes are a good test that you have the basics down and programming exercises are straightforward - a good course to help you find out if you are interested in learning more.

I knew nothing about programming/coding and this has been an eye opener. I am still in the learning process. More practice will help me master the concepts taught in this course. Thanks for this opportunity. The videos were very helpful and the exercises/assessments helped improved learning.

This course has given me a great start to the world of Python programming. Professor Severance does a great job at explaining the basics of Python and its syntax. Looking forward to the further courses under Python Specialization and building up my skills to build great technology solutions.

It has been 20 years since I lost touch with programming. I was afraid i would never be able to face the comeback....you know, it was a totally different era....and I thought I could never catch up ever. But you just got me to falling head over heels in love with programming again.

Thank you
