The content is superbly designer for a beginner. The Swirl assignments need to make compulsory. Infact they contributed more to the learning process. More Swirl contents will make the course richer.

Very challenging, but good course. I've been programming in R for over a year, but there were still some things for me to pick up in this class. Assignments were a challenge, but satisfying to tackle.

I can't add a new thread in forum, it always implies me that I need to add more description in the body of the question.

Assignments and video contents are miles apart, but explanation in videos is very very useful to examine on self enquiry

There is a huge gap between lectures and assignments. This course is unfriendly to people without programming background

It demands you a lot of time, if you wanna be challenged this course is a good idea (if you aren't a expert programmer)

It was good. Some topics are complex and maybe they require more explanations, for example when you create functions.

Learning sessions and the assignments had a huge gulf in between. But in a way, it was good that it was challenging.

practical and straight forward, although if you do not have any background in programming, you may need some support

Great to learn. But some of the assignment instructions were not clear enough, and took a lot of time to figure out.

This course tells me basic functions but if we want to learn it more specialised or proficient, it may let you down.

Slides and videos are a bit insufficient in order to finish course projects.

Apart from that, this course is awesome!

Overall it's good. And I think PPT may be much more helpful if there is a video of professor, and some animations.

Great course overall. Basic principles for using R are covered. It could cover a bit more advanced tasks though.
