Highest learning potential amongst all the Coursera courses I have done
Great introduction to python for the novice, it also sets the tone for the rest of the class, I recommend to study this part well.
excellent course
O conteudo do curso é bem detalhado, o bloco de notas do Jupyter ajuda bastante o entendimento das video-aulas, e os assignments são bastante desafiadores fazendo com que os alunos tenham que ir atras de novos conhecimentos online e aprendam ainda mais.
Very Beneficial
Good materials and videos, iteresting exercises - the only thing I would improve is the exercises description - not for all of the exerisises it was clear enough for me (especially as I'm not from the US and I'm not familiar with your census data :) )
The pandas software is out of date which caused me much stress and frustration in submitting assignments. PLEASE UPDATE YOUR SOFTWARE.
It will be quiet difficult to learning panda with this little sort of introductions. and specially as a new comer
I found the lectures extremely dry and boring. The entire time I was watching the videos, I was just looking forward to the end. Meanwhile, the exercises were exceedingly difficult. I found myself using apply and groupby methods when they were only introduced in Week 2. Suffice to say, my first few hours on the course can only be describe as 'painful'.\

I would suggest to anyone reading this to watch Brandon Rhodes' Pycon 2015 lecture. It was way more engaging, and his explanation of concepts were much clearer. The exercises were well paced, and after spending 6 hours or so on both the video and the exercises, my mind has never been clearer on Pandas. I urge anyone who has been recommended this course to drop it IMMEDIATELY. Putting your time into YouTube and Stack Overflow will definitely be more beneficial.
