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.

All the basics for Data Science with Python. You wont be a master programmer after this class but you will understand the basics and computer logic in regards to data handling and cloud management.
