the main facilitator is an excellent teacher. I appreciate. The model used by Coursera for this course and others is beautiful and learning friendly. keep it up.
While it does help you to understand some rather small and minute details about the fundamentals of Python this is NOT a good course if you're actually intending to learn it. The amount of "Go do it and find out" is hilarious. The hints inside the Labs are NOT helpful. You have absolutely no way of knowing if you've gotten the answer right even if the answer is MEANT to have an error (yes this happens). The amount of frustration I had while just trying to see if I could get the right answer, forcing myself to do the standardized test trick and skip the answer until I saw something similar and just guessed based on that was HORRIBLE. For what it is, it's a course that teaches you how to do redundant work, repeat the same tasks and gives you absolutely no help along the way.
