Ratings and Reviews for Python Project: Software Engineering and Image Manipulation

This course sucked at first because I didn't know my a**e from my elbow, but it's the same as anything else, you're expected to be ausonomous, inquisitive, and open to research outside of the course. It entailed a lot of digging around the web (considering my program building skill - or lack thereof -) and learning 90% of the info I needed on my own, but it's definitely worhtwhile as this is par for the course in the real world. All-in-all, a good course & definitely the steep learning curve you'll / I need to kickstart the ability required to design, create and implement Python programs. I'd strongly suggest asking Stephen Catto for his LinkedIn handle as well :-D Cheers.

Not much Detailed

The content of the exercises and labs is nice, labs are challenging enough and they force you to start getting into reading documentation and building your understanding on how to approach programming problems but the videos are usuless, 90% of the videos are the instructor reading exactly what is in the Jupyter Notebbok and nothing elses, feels like a waste of time. Also to note is that the person in charge of the Discussion Forum only replies to tell people what to or not to ask on the forums instead of helping the students, 90% of his answers tell people to stop asking the same question and he uses his time to tell them that instead of just helping them which I find useless.

Great course which requires attention, lots of research and hard work (in my case). I wish instructor can provide more examples with explanation. I had to find out how to iterate over archive without unpacking it and how to save data in sequence, which I can open and process later. Overall, I'm happy with practice and knowledge I got. Thanks!

I feel the pace of this course is a bit too fast, and it is hard to master all materials learned about the three major APIs (tesseract, openCV, and pillow) given the lecture. A lot of self-experimenting and trial-and-error is required to do the final project. A more through introduction to each of these three excellent API would be helpful and reduce the burden of the final project. Nevertheless, I sincerely appreciate the efforts the instructors devoted to this specializations. I learned a ton from each of you. Cheers!

Much harder course than the other four in the specialization because there isn't really teaching. They tell you how to utilize new libraries and encourage (force) you to find documentation to support your own project/assignment. Prepare to spend much more time than the other classes. Trust me, it's normal to feel helpless at the beginning. I don't know that I am better at Python because of this class, but I can see how some individuals would thrive in this environment.

I learnt new libraries and I had to do more researh, this course helped me to feel more secure of what I learnt in the previous courses. Aprendí nuevas librerias y tuve que investigar más, este curso me ayudó a sentirme más seguro de lo que aprendí en los cursos previos.

Great track to learn python from scratch

Too much Too fast in this class. I did not learn much to be honest The text in the slides shown during the lecture were real too small I really did not enjoy this class sinec everything was taught SO FAST....

Not satisfied with this this course at all. It does not seem like any effort was made to make enough material for the students to understand the concepts, I will not recommend this to anyone, more can be learned just be googling about the topics, how does this course benefit the students who sign up for it is the question.
