Good introduction of basics. The final, peer-graded assignment doesn't fully work, thus check comments on forums linked on the top of the course in case of any issues.

It was very easy for one who already have studied python before. It would be more fun if it would have been more difficult. But, overall it was fabulous experience.

Excelent basic view of python, it includes tools that you will use without delving too deep into how they work but giving enough of an explanation to not feel lost

although the learning materials are good, the labs should be at least explained thoroughly in simple terms and there should be step-by-step instructions in coding.
