Nice Experience
This course provides very little instruction. I really like learning by trial and error, and I think that is how coding is typically learned. Learning python from stack_exchange, however, is how I was already learning it, and I was doing fine. The whole problem of learning from stack exchange is that you don't know if you are doing things in the best possible way, which can be important for big datasets. There was no discussion of the best practices for complete an assignment, after it was turned in, and, in general, may functions were required to pass the course that were never discussed in the course. The entire weeks lecture could also be watched in about 30 minutes, which seems low to me. Most courses I have taken have at least three hours a week of lecture. I have friends who have taken this same course, and had a similar assessment.
The lectures dont include almost anything from the programming assignments, I had to look for everything on stack overflow. The explanations are great and I learned a lot on the assignments, they are just 2 different things most of the time.
The examples used are so small it's hard to understand how to use these skills in real-world situations if you aren't as used to Python.
Nice intro for Data Science with Python
Well designed course
Excellent basics
Learnt a lot
Very Good learning
Comprehensive and challenging learning experience to achieve the data manipulation skills with python as much alike in real world scenario, strongly recommended for practitioners in data science field.
