I am happy to say thanks to the tutor and coursera platform for providing this opportunity. Personally i feel about the course is that assignments are quite difficult for beginners. Thank you
Introduction to Python Programming
This course provides an introduction to programming and the Python language. Students are introduced to core programming concepts like data structures, conditionals, loops, variables, and functions. This course includes an overview of the various tools available for writing and running Python, and gets students coding quickly. It also provides hands-on coding exercises using commonly used data structures, writing custom functions, and reading and writing to files. This course may be more robust than some other introductory python courses, as it delves deeper into certain essential programming topics.

I really enjoyed this course. It was well paced and covered the basics nicely. The practice exercises were hard, but made sure you learned all the key concepts.

It's just the beginning.For those who are also interested in programming, in my opinion, CS50 is also a good choice for learning the intro.HW3 and HW4 are pretty funny too.

Great explanations and lots of examples to follow on. The course built throughout so I had confidence in completing assignments though they were not easy. Great interaction in discussion forums.

Final assignment on creating own bank is interesting and practical. Wish that the assignment explained things better though I managed to figure things out after struggling with it a little bit.

The Course and the instructor is good but the Lab and Assignment should be reworked, the jupyter notebook sometimes doesn't show submit option or doesn't respond or run the code block at all.

The course content is well planned. Th assignments and discussion forums are outstanding. Would like to give 4.5/5 since I think the topics can be bit more explained thoroughly.
