The syllabus of the course takes you in a roller-coaster ride.

From basic level to advance level and you won't feel any trouble nor hesitate a bit.

It's easy, it's vast, and it's really usefull.

it becomes easier wand clearer when one gets to complete the assignments as to how to utilize what has been learned. Practical work is a great way to learn, which was a fundamental part of the course.

Briefly it covers a lot of topics. Learnt many new things in such a short span of time. Its just that the Hands on tool was a little slow. Rest everything was pretty simple and its good for beginners.

This course is basically designed for beginner who wants to start with python. So it covers most the stuffs a beginner wants to know. But nothing related to datascience and AI I found in this course.

Good tutorials, well introduced. Kudos!

Some labs and exercises were too complex for starters; however, quite useful as code later in practice.

Many names could be shorter, simpler, more descriptive.

It is a good course if you have previous knowledge in python, in my case I did not have too much expertise in Programming and it was very difficult the las 2 weeks (4 and 5). However i learned a lot.

It was a fantastic learning experience, especially the project part and review mechanism is flawless. Could improve support related to IBM cloud-related queries. Otherwise overall a good experience.

A nice introduction to Python! I would have liked assignments that were a little more in-depth, but other than that the course content was well laid out, easy to understand, and a solid foundation.

Great Course work just more needs to be explained. I searched a lot to find more information as a beginner.

But a great introduction will recommend it if you're starting out without any experience.

This was a good course with a lot of interesting content. However the exercises in the hands-on labs were often repetitive and the quiz questions replicated the questions asked during the lecture.

Fast pace course, if you have never been in touch with python you might need more time and extra materials to complement your studies. Overall, it is a good introduction to python foundamentals.

For someone new, like me, Jupyter Notebooks didn't seem to work all the time; or the code didn't work. Overall, a fantastic course, sometimes I wasn't sure why the code in the labs didn't work.

Could be a bit more advanced for those who have programming background. I also felt the practical work in the lab could have entailed more quizzes to let the students apply the new concepts more

This was a pretty good course, But there were some mistakes here and there with the text that the bot speaks and also in some of the slides. It'd be better if some instructor records the videos.

Good course. but one needs to make sure they properly understand all the topics covered and very minute level of concentration is required because they might cover a simple topic in 30 seconds.

Muy bueno, pero siento que se deberìa explicar como usar los APIs y demàs desde el Python que uno descarga localmente, y no a travès de Jupyther notebook. Y explicar el graficar en el mathplot,

There are some drastic leaps in learning between modules. It would make it easier to have additional information explaining a lot more of the concepts, rather than just running a block of code.

I am reducing 1 star because of the issues I faced during the exam. Kindly update your instructions as per the updated IBM cloud website, or any other third party tools employed in the course.

This course strengthen your knowledge for python, and it requires lots of understanding, time to do lab and practice to become better. However, I hope some issues with the lab can be improved.

-Good Course for basics of python and intro to Pandas and Numpy

-More exercises related to Pandas and Numpy would be good for practice.

-The course isn't updated with the latest UI of IBM Watson

I am grateful for Coursera and IBM for this course. I deducted 1 star because I felt the content of Week4 (content with Pandas and Numpy), and Week 5 should have been expanded a little more.

Good course. It can go from very simple to very complex at times for someone who starts from scracth. There is a lot of code that isn't always explained with a lot of functions in between.
