作业还是蛮有难度的，如果对pandas数据处理不熟练的话

Thank You! Sir

Exceptional

Easy to learn new things with this course.

I gained perspective on the solution of real-life problems with python.

it was a great course, with all the basics you need to start working in python. assignments are well structured and useful for step-by-step learning!

It helps to learn how to clean up datasets in Python. 5 stars for it. Some information for who want to try this class: a. The course introduction shows ~18 hrs to complete the course. As a person with limited experience in Python, and as a person who mainly use Excel to deal with datasets for a long time, it took maybe >30 hours: ~4 hours every day for a week, maybe more hours on weekends. b. The course says an intermediate level. The time spent on lectures might be 1/10 ~1/5 of the time spent on assignments. In other words, self-learning is highly demanded. c. The discussion forums are helpful. Read through them before starting doing assignments might save time. Some expectations if the course material will be updated someday in the future: a. Have a short video to clarify or explain the questions in the assignments. If there are some common questions in the forum over the past years, there are reasons for them. A bit more information might be needed, eg. a math definition for a concept. b. The auto-grader is great, but it may not provide enough information on why the answer is wrong. For some of the common issues, the code for grading may be provided as material for a better understanding.
