Ratings and Reviews for Programming for Everybody (Getting Started with Python)

Lays down the foundations of Python beautifully. Easy to understand, looking forward to continuing.

This is a fantastic course for anyone who wants to learn more about the power of coding and has very little experience. The professor is funny and speaks in a way that is very easy to learn from and makes you want to continue learning more.

Recommend to anybody learning to program. Real easy to follow, with helpful lectures and exercises.

Excellent introductory course - I highly recommend.

Great instructions and super easy to follow. I wish there was more content though. For $49, it seems like a "For dummies" book on Python would be more valuable since it covers more content.

Very well explained, anyone can make this their first programming course or a simple introduction to Python.

preety cool

This session is too easy and also many page no my country language, but some have.

Coming at this with no experience in coding at all, this course was extremely difficult. I think the most difficult part of this class was following the videos. The reason is because real world uses weren't given very often. I struggled with motivation nearing the end of this course because the examples in the videos focused on the "what" the code does and not so much the "why." Because of this, the usefulness of some of the discussed functionalities in python are still unknown to me. To remedy that, I would recommend the exercises in the videos reflect what will be done in the assignments, at least to some degree. I couldn't help but get hung up on what "zork" had to do with anything (among a few other examples), or why I would ever need to find the largest letter in a phrase like "hello world." In fact, I think my biggest struggle going through this course was fighting thoughts like, "what am I going to use this for?" I would like to see more content related to solving real world problems, even if it's just in the bonus content. Overall, while it was very difficult, I really do recommend this course to others, and in fact I already have recommend it to two of my friends. The instructor seems like a really awesome guy, he's easy to listen to, and overall he's the kind of teacher than any student would love to have.

Outstanding course. Highly recommended, the instructor is excellent.
