Ratings and Reviews for Python Basics

If you have no idea what Python is but you want to know it, and if you have no programming experience, this course is excellent for you. Frankly speaking, I expected some more challenge, as this course is recommended to take after finishing "Python for Everybody" specialization, but alas. On the other side, it's called "Python Basics", not "Python Advanced Level" and I learned some new information from this course too (methods causing mutation and creating new objects, aliases, difference between "==" and "is", etc.) Anyways, this is just the first step of a Python 3 Specialization and it gives you a very solid knowledge of Python fundamentals. Interactive Textbook used in the course is a great source of knowledge and practice. And videos provided by professors leave no chance to misunderstanding.

good for beginners

outstanding

Amazing course that will teach you nuances of the language that you simply will never be able to grasp in a traditional class. Even if you know Python already, this course is absolutely worth going through.

Very solid. I especially like the online textbook with the interactive problems. The lectures and the textbook covered the same material so I don't think you need both.

If you are looking to strengthen your basics in python 3, then you are at the right place with the right people.

Can't participate in assignments unless you pay

Good Course to learn basic of python

This course has a great syllabus for teaching the basics of Python, even to someone who hasn't ever programmed before. Their interactive textbook is well-designed and easy to work with, and the exercises and practice tools are helpful. Highly recommended.

Nice class. Very complete and more in depth than Python for Everybody.
