The topic explanations and videos are very simple compared to the level of difficulty of the assignments. Also, assignments are ambiguous, it takes a lot of time and forum visits to completely understand what is being asked.
The assignment auto grader is super super annoying, others are all good.
Very informational and learnt a lot by doing hands-on !
The course is really good the material is a little heavy and need a lot of work for the assigmentes.
Some lack of help dduring the assigments and the practice tools are not working
This course requires a lot of extra research using the Pandas' documentation and Stack Overflow in order to past the tests, which are very well designed to gained the most important skills. At first I felt this course was very demanding but as I moved forward to the second and third course of the specialization, I realized how much I learned from it.
I wish there is more lecture material provided on dataframes, especially mechanics of grouping.
Some interesting usage of the python.
The lectures do not contain enough material to prepare you for the programming assignments. Programming assignments are challenging but the problems are not clearly stated, most of your work will consist in finding answers in Stackoverflow instead of looking for the answers in lectures or programming assignment instructions.
The best course I ever chosen in my life. Thank you for giving me a chance to pursue this course. Thanks.
