About the Course

This course is designed to teach you the foundations in order to write simple programs in Python using the most common structures. No previous exposure to programming is needed. By the end of this course, you will understand the benefits of programming in IT roles; understand basic Python syntax; explore different code editors and developer environments; be able to write simple programs using Python; figure out how the building blocks of programming fit together; and combine all of this knowledge to solve a complex programming problem. We'll start off by diving into the basics of writing a computer program. Along the way, you’ll get hands-on experience with programming concepts through interactive exercises and real-world examples. You’ll quickly start to see how computers can perform a multitude of tasks — you just have to write code that tells them what to do....

I personally found this course easy for someone who has been learning python for a year now. However, for someone who is beginner-intermediate level in python, this course is extremely helpful. It helped me refresh on all the basics of python, especially data structures and algorithms. Will take similar courses to this in the future as python practice.

Wonderfully developed course. Nicely explained and instructed. However, for absolute beginners, some concepts might not have been explained very well. But I understand that's because the scope of the course is limited and it is more geared toward IT professionals, rather than developers. Overall great experience. Thank you Coursera and the Google Team.

This was a really good course for someone who's starting Python programming. I liked the topics which were cover, and the examples used to explain them. The quick questions in between the video are quite helpful in maintaining the focus. The coding questions were really good and enabled me to really manipulate nd use all the tools which I had learned.

I was hesitant at first because I thought I would just fall behind because it takes me time to write programs and remember all the stuff, but the videos and reading were helpful and the examples and projects were super fun. Learned a lot from the tests questions themselves. Though I am not in IT, I want it was a great crash course. Glad I finished it!

Great course!

This crash course on python is really beginner.

But the questions given in this course are too complex and require the best of your creativity to solve them though the course is a perfection itself and the instructors are so nice and they really keep motivating us where they know that where we will have some problems in creating our code.

The course kicks off with the basics of writing a computer program. Progressing with the course, you get hands-on experience in writing language through interactive exercises and real-world examples.  the benefits of programming language and how it plays an important role. write simple Python programs to combine knowledge and solve complex problems.

Excellent beginners course on Python! High quality content! Tutor is just amazing. I saw a lot of courses, but this one is the best so far. At first I though tasks are too easy, but gradually difficulty of the assignments rose up, so after few easy tasks I was happy to solve some real problems (but still it was not too difficult, just enough for me).

There are so many exercises to practice coding in each video and quizzes are really amazing they also contain code and check your understanding of the material. The structure of the whole course and the production quality is also really good. The instructor is really good at explaining hard concepts. Overall the course is really fun and informative.

Overall a great learning experience. I like how the course is designed. There can be improvements however in the coding questions and quizzes. I have a few unanswered ones in some of the quizzes, but I didn't have to worry since I still got a passing grade. I just hope the correct answers/codes was shown at the succeeding part (as an optional part).

What makes this course stand out is that it uses real-life examples and practical exercises to teach you how to write Python code. The course also provides you with the opportunity to work on projects that are relevant to real-world situations. This makes it easier for learners to apply what they have learned in the course to their day-to-day work.

Such a great introduction to programming and Python for those with little or no experience, and even those who have been in the industry for years. The information is presented in a clear and accessible format that works for all skill levels. Examples are clear, labs are relevant, and the hierarchy of concepts is expertly crafted. Take this course!

I've started some other python classes before and never seemed to ever finish them, this one was perfect. Great mix of videos and interactive questions to keep it not getting stale. It still takes some research on your part, as well as going back on previous videos. Definitely worth it. Now for the next course to interact with the operating system!

This course was amazing. You'll have to improve your ability to take fast notes and intake information rapidly if you're a slow learner. It's OK - you can do it! This course was awesome and Google's methods of teaching you Python ease you into things, while throwing you in the deep end, both at the same time. I absolutely loved taking this course.

This Python course has seemed very interesting to me. Because of the large number of topics that have been used as well as the way in which the most difficult concepts have been explained.

For this reason I consider this course as a good start or for those of us who know programming a good review of the beginnings of Python.

Best Regard: Javier

This course is really amazing. Each and every part of it is interesting . Everyone who wants to learn Python should choose this platform of Coursera. Every module covers all the stuff that need in learning Programming. Learning Python with this crash course creates a lot of interest in programming. So, I can say in one word that just go for it.

It was a pretty good introduction to python. I suggest whoever wants to learn python don't skip Week 5.

Some concepts might be hard for beginners (I am not a beginner myself) so I would recommend, either the creators of the course reconsider the concepts they teach (teach concepts more in-depth) or they reconsider the group target of this course.

It was genuinely a wonderful course for beginners. It covered all the basic concepts of Python along with various examples and quizzes, which helped a lot in understanding Python coding and automation. Also, the instructor was really good at teaching, she cleared up all the concepts undeniably well. Special thanks to Google and the instructor.

It helps me to realize how python use in the BT projects. Some tracks to code efficiently. You don't learn just how to programe or the rules of python, you also learn how to use these skills in different areas. I gained many experiences on this course like searching, solving, sharing information. Thanks for everyone that prepared this course.

I learned a lot of things in very smooth journey. Never felt like that I'm doing something like a course. It became like daily story reading. Google gave a lot of trusted resources for learning about a lot of libraries of python. And doing the final project was a real fun. Thank you Coursera and Google. I'm truly satisfied with this course.

It's a great course for anyone with no knowledge in Python and/or programming language. Christine had a great job keeping you focused in course content and motivating to keep learning. She also did a lot effort to keep attention to detail, she tries to be funny and clear in her explanation about Python topics. Really, a great course. Thanks.
