Great for a fundamental course. I have to admit that I had learnt python a few years back and was using this as a practice and revision course. But I learnt a lot more which I can add to my knowledge.

Well taught, assignemnts are just right in complexity, its hard enough to no be easy and but not to be frustrating and tests challange your knowledge enough for it to be rewarding to complete with 80%

Excellent course. Great support from Patrick in the forums, helping by giving people the tools rather than the answers, perfect for a beginner as I am. Thanks all !

I like this course but it would've been better if I could show the correct answers and solutions to quizzes to check our answers and correct ourselves to improve.

Is good course to have the basic understanding of Python. After taking the course you should be able to learn on your own the tools that you need for programming
