By B Cooper

This course is the most complete breakdown of python I have come across; there is very little which is not covered within this course. Everything that is covered is covered clearly and extensively - there are not many questions lingering after each video, and if there are a quick review of the supplementary materials generally answers them!

I'll create a full review when I have fully completed the course. At the time of writing I have finished 120 videos so have a fair

By Khubah Khoirurobiq

I enjoyed this course to learn Python basics. This course is good for beginners. It covers a lot of topics. Each video is easy to understand. I do not say this is perfect and go to many detail of Python language. But, it is great for beginners to start writing Python scripts.After this course, a student must be comfortable to write many basic Python scripts. This course met my expectation.

By Sam Davidson

The course is a nice introduction. The materials are easy to understand and the instructor is responsive if you have any questions. Its a great start if your looking for an introduction to Python.

I just went through the outline of this course. I think this course is a another big thing for me to mark my presence in company. very good for beginner like me

By Konstantinos Papazis

Great course!!!

By Michael Weinstein

The title of this course is a bit of a misnomer. While they do start with the basics, they go so much more in-depth than most other courses. I have been particularly impressed with their coverage of parallelism in python is the problems that can sometimes occur that are not seen in linear programming.

By Jerry Robinette

So far so good. Decent overview so far.

By Steven Miller

their is no doing just two people talking at you the free courses are way better

By Matthew Brahms

This course goes in-depth with Python. From the first few Lectures it moves quickly into how to program in Python. Very thorough presentations that help explain python and get you working quickly.
