I have minimal programming knowledge, and this course is great for beginners who want to learn the basics of both Python and programming in general at the same time

Charles Severance rocks! He has masterfully explained basics of Python, enough to engage a layman - like myself - into learning programming, with zeal and efficacy.

Precise and efficient, humorous professor, well-organized course outline. Just a little bit too easy for those who have already studied other programming languages.

Great course. It is really nice to begin learning programming with Python instead of C programming language which the Chinese universities usually teach for novice.

The textbook made it easier for me to understand programming concepts better. I found the assignments challenging enough for me to learn more in a hands on fashion.
