TOP REVIEWS FROM LEARN TO PROGRAM: THE FUNDAMENTALS
As a complete beginner in the world of programming, this is one of the best courses I have found. The instructors are excellent. I thank them for taking the time to develop such a useful course.
Very interesting and start from basic. Preferred course for beginner level person. Explained each topic very clearly. Recommend this course to people who want to start journey in python programming.
I enjoyed this course very much. The concepts were well explained. I gave only 4 stars because I wish there were more assignments to do instead of the quizzes. All in all great intro into programming.
Very good course for beginners!
A few minor issues like questions during videos not accepting correct answer or skipping to next lesson before answering final question with auto-skip enabled.
