The video-based training for the course was good. I think there is often too big a jump from what is covered in the videos to what the learner is asked to work through in an assignment. Perhaps more, and more modular assignments would help. It would be impossible (at least in my opinion) to pass the course without the teaching assistants and the interactions in the forums. (A big hand for the TA's!) The additional readings and thought-provoking questions are very good. Please continue them. Finally, whatever you can do to get Coursera to improve the (incredibly cryptic) automated grader functionality would be appreciated: there were times when I felt that the only way to get an answer right was to sacrifice a goat at the grader's altar.

terrible course please improve teaching efficiency and give a proper realistic assignments
Good course i.g! But it is quite annoying, that the auto grader (python 3.5 ?) does not behave like the online coursera notebook (python 3.6.2), which leads to errors at the evaluation.
some tasks were ambiguous
Wonderful course to get started off with!
Very Good
great!
This course is advance level but very informative.
That's really good.
Un curso poco práctico, los vídeos son demasiado largos, dando vueltas sobre los mismos conceptos básicos y los ejercicios son bastante complicados en relación al temario (se espera que se busque por internet en páginas como Stack Overflow). No se trata nada de algoritmos, es casi todo limpieza de datos y cambios de formatos.
