Ratings and Reviews for Introduction to Data Science in Python

It's great course, but the assignments are so hard to data science beginner.

the homework is interesting

Briskly paced course for those new to Python and/or Pandas. Good weekly exercises that ended with a real life data analysis exercise in week 4.

Thanks for introducing Pandas and Anaconda!

The course is well structured and clarity of teaching is impressive. The assignments have a good mix of easy and progressively tougher questions that build on the syllabus and challenge you to manipulate data in your own way. I can warmly recommend this course to anyone who wants to begin manipulating and analysing data using python.

I learned good materials for Python from this class. The assignments are good. Only one comment: the writing of the assignments can be very vague and at times it is hard to understand. Overall, I like the class.

Hard course, but good ROI.

While this was one of the better courses I've done on Coursera, the start date of the course was changed without any indication of when it would begin. We've also been waiting months for the next course in the specialisation to begin, again without any communication. This was a good course, but I would recommend people wait until all the rest of the courses are available before starting this course and beginning the specialisation.

This is a very well organized course with a great introduction to data science. In a short time of 4 weeks, it covers Python basics, Padans library, and some very basic introduction to statistics in data science. The assignments are well desgined, and the mentors are very helpful in the forums. I highly recommend this course.

It was challenging yet fun to learn this course. Last but not least, the http://stackoverflow.com is really helpful. I highly recommend it to anyone who want to learn Python.
