Please Decide what are you trying to teach , Course name says Python Programming Fundamentals , But there was nothing much on the Python fundamentals . topics suddenly jumps in to algorithms and programming assignments . which will be a difficult learning for the beginners . and more over in description you mentioned zero programming knowledge required. which is false statement.

Do not be fooled by the current rating (3.something at the time of writing). This is a great course and let me explain why. It is an interesting approach to teaching the fundamentals of Python and computing in general. If you are a complete beginner, you might find that it is not giving you a lot of practice in order to build that initial foundation. But for somebody that could be described as a 'false' beginner (some basic knowledge), it will help explain and drive home the fundamental principles of writing good code. I am currently doing the first three courses in the series (I do have some background in Python, and I am looking for good, pedagogical resources for my own teaching), and I can see how everything connects together. I would recommend to go slowly and carefully through everything, and maybe supplement it with some more practice from other resources. I understand that we would like a one-stop course that could teach us everything, but this is rarely the case with programming (or any other subject for that matter). If you are here for the data science bit, you have to realise that they focus more heavily on the computer science side of things .The assignments are interesting and easier than what they might look at first. Do not be intimidated by the reading bits (especially if you are a beginner). As always, it is very hard to gauge what is the initial level of somebody that embarks on this learning journey, so it is inevitable that some people will be somewhat disappointed. But I can tell you from my own experience that if you persist, you will be able to connect some dots from your previous learning on these subjects, and learn some new things!

They did not let me complete the course. There was an issue with one of the assignments and their grading system, I posted a question about it, initially received a reply saying that would review it, I guess they never fixed it because I never received a reply again, even though I kept asking and trying to submit the assignment. I completed everything else in the course but since that issue is still pending (after more than 3 months) the course is incomplete. Regarding content, it is not really a python course, the focus is about testing, how to think when structuring automated tests and they use python to code these tests. A beginner may need to look up on his/her own some of the concepts used here.

Great course! I was about to drop out the first week but decided to stick with it and glad I did. Learned a lot! If I could describe this course would be a "Programming course with concentration in Python" instead of a "Python programming course" if that makes any sense. I recommend to go slow and really understand the lecture before moving on to the next one. Also, I don't think this is an easy course so I recommend having some basic knowledge of Python programming (or programming in general). Good luck!

too much reading and just few videos

Very boring and do not advise take it.

Learning made easy. This is so rich yet easy to follow. I certainly recommend this course!!

was the best course for programming python

It is very challenging!

Best course

I'm very disappointed with this course. It says it is for beginners, but it is not. The instructors use complex functions to introduce python and a very robotic style to deliver their lectures, that I frankly find annoying. I needed to watch the videos several times to try to understand their circular flow of ideas. If you need strong background in Python to take this course, you should say so. If you want only an audience of engineers, you should also say so.

There wasn't enough content to help do the assignments

I really liked the step by step approach described in this course to solve a problem.

Assignments are very challenging. love it

Buen contenido y bien guiado.

good

Good course Very Helpful

not able to unenroll

Been through multiple python course, this is the only one really taught about how to determine and identify good process of algorithm thinking before apply it to code. It is really helpful and structured way of thinking and problem solving rather than just python syntax these that blah blah. The course assignment was not too hard, but still challenge in a good way. Recommended for everyone who about to learn proper way of programing in python. Also good for cs student to refresh thinking idea.

Good class. Made me stretch to figure things out. I with the projects had a way of giving more help during the process but I figured it out. Thanks Duke!
