By mistake wrote the wrong name for instructor. I wrote Dr. Chuck instead of Dr. Charles Severance. Please correct that in previous comment/review. Thanks

Instructor was a tad annoying (sorry), but great course for fundamentals. Helped me to reinforce a couple concepts that I have really been struggling with.

I am a 6th grade student. This is my first coursera class. I was able to understand all of the topics and I could complete all the assignments by my self.

Tried a C course before this and glad i decided to switch over to this class, this should be how everyone learns to code, it feels just challenging enough

Seems daunting but they weren't lying when they said python for everybody. It's quite easy to understand even for someone with zero programming knowledge.
