The main thing I liked about the course is the videos in which basics were taught from scratch which were followed by readings including multiple choice questions.Then,the main things were the assignments which really helped in concept building of python basics.
This course is absolutely fantastic , covers the most needed and used python basics.

university of michigan
This is very useful .I learned the basics of python programming from this course.Thank you Coursera and University of Michigan for this course This course and platform is a great combination for learning, interacting with python and I must say, thank you to every tutor and other respected person whosoever involved in the development of this course, and I am sending my best wishes from my heart to their hard work .
I am extremely thankful to the University of Michigan for your extremely detailed and influential course on the subject of Python Basics.
Thank you University of Michigan and Coursera.5 stars!!!!
Thank you coursera and University of Michigan!
the only reason i am taking two specialzation of python from the university of michigan is that is i like to gain some knowledge.
I took this course after completing four of the five courses from ‘Python for Everybody’ specialisation offered by University of Michigan.
I really love the pace and humor at the University of Michigan School of Information.
Nivel básico Great course materials, and i love the online textbook and practice tools University of Michigan, School of Information's courses are always the best.
Looking forward to more courses from University of Michigan on Data Structures and Algorithms.
Amazing instructors and syllabus covers all basic topics .What makes this course different from other python courses is that interactive textbook provided by University of Michigan .

easy to follow
Easy to follow.
very good I liked the course , it was quite entertaining and easy to follow.
Great starting point for python3 I thought the notebook presentation was easy to follow and clear.I preferred working my way through the notebook but the complications of UN-updated completed assignments made tracking my progress too confusing.
Easy to follow and plenty of tools to keep practising and assess yourself, and of course earn a cert!
I am looking forward to complete rest of the program This course was easy to follow and it's obvious from the thoroughness of the interactive notebook the professors have taken the time to really plan out the material.
Very good and easy to follow.Thank you very useful and interesting course it is .
Excellent Teaching Great Course with thoughtful exercises Very helpful and easy to follow.
Great course, easy to follow, makes you be clean when coding and teaches you how it works great course, it's indeed the basics like the name already suggested, but that is a pretty good start, if this is your first contact with python and everything it can do.

python for everybody
Nice basic pythonic way to write python more rigorous and challenging than python for everybody - good class Great lesson Excellent course!
A very nice learning course for beginners in python Much more detailed that the Python for Everybody course.
I really enjoyed the course.Happy learning Auditing doesn't allow assessments good course but still recommend python for everybody course before this very nice course for the begineers Great class for beginners as well as a refresher for advanced beginners.
Python for Everybody Specialisation is a kind of overview of the Python.
I love the pace of this course, it gave me the opportunity to review my learnings from "python for everybody" and reinforce them.
If you have no idea what Python is but you want to know it, and if you have no programming experience, this course is excellent for you.Frankly speaking, I expected some more challenge, as this course is recommended to take after finishing "Python for Everybody" specialization, but alas.
Very complete and more in depth than Python for Everybody.

interactive textbook
Love the interactive textbook, and the instructors are wonderful!
Interactive textbook, codelens are the best.
I loved the interactive textbook and all the practice it offered.
I like the idea of the interactive textbook.
It comes with an interactive textbook that reminds me of the Official Python Documentation.
The interactive textbook used in this course is very helpful.
)Anyways, this is just the first step of a Python 3 Specialization and it gives you a very solid knowledge of Python fundamentals.Interactive Textbook used in the course is a great source of knowledge and practice.
Their interactive textbook is well-designed and easy to work with, and the exercises and practice tools are helpful.

new to programming
Basic is right - I'd recommend this for someone completely new to programming but those used to another programming language will find themselves wanting more in the way of extension questions.
The proscribed 1-hour limits on the tests were too short for me, but that is more due to me being relatively new to programming.
This course is great for beginners and who are new to programming.
Would recommend this to anyone who are interested in python or new to programming.

really helped
It really helped me a lot for getting the basics all right and fine.
It really helped me to get familiar with the language and those nuances which can lead to unexpected behavior of the compiled code (such as list mutation due to aliasing).
Taking Python basics has really helped me gain confidence to take over so many programming challenges.
was able to understand all the basics of Python and I am confident to move ahead with the advanced topics Didn't expected this course to be beginner friendly as many courses out there aren't.This course really helped me improve my Python.

online textbook
Everything was so clear, loved the spaced repetition tests, numerous quizzes, the online textbook.
The online textbook and embedded exercises are excellent and very graceful at handling programming errors.
I especially like the online textbook with the interactive problems.

will help
Even using advanced skills (e.g regex, list comprehensions ...) will help you deal with the problems more quickly, trying to solve it with the most basic and fundamental concepts will help you understand more about the data structures and algorithms.
This course is extremely well organized and even if you already have some experience coding it will help you to organize the content in your mind.
A prior knowledge of basic programming concepts will help to complete this course in fast track!
