    Really interesting course. The interactive coding sessions with swirl are especially useful. Would be great, if you provided sample solutions for the programming assignments, in particular for week 4.

    Very good course. Programming assignments were enjoyable and challenging. They may be a little difficult for someone without a programming background

    The content was great, especially the swirl() library. The instructions were a little confusing at times, but the online advisors helped to sort it out.

    Really great course! I wish though that the programming assignments were more hands-on and that common packages used in industry e.g. dplyr were taught

    Good course overall. The course would be better if the learning activities better prepared you for the difficulty of the final programming assignment.

    I think the course content is insufficient to handle with the programs assignments. However, it's a very challenging course, therefore I recommend it.

    This course is basic but the fist necessary step for anyone who want to be a master. The more your practice, the more you will learn from this course.

    A very good course. But i would have preferred much more exercises and may be instructor could have been a bit slow too. Overall I am quite satisfied.

    The course is really good. But the peer evaluation is kind hard. If there has the notice to tell the student how to find the peer, that will be good!

    Very well designed course covering almost all required aspects of R programming. It would be much better to add few demonstration of coding as well.

    The good course!

    But, actually, may be toooooo hard for people without previous programming experience. I struggled a lot while trying to complete it.

    Assignment 3, Q4 was exceptionally hard. Would've been good to have more easy questions leading up to it, as it was I felt dropped off the deep end.

    Very good course. But the final test was too difficult. Almost impossible without external help for people like me with no experience in programming

    As a beginner, find the course work is a bit tricky compare to the lecture notes and examples went through. It has been challenging and rewarding.

    I think homework are too difficult.

    we should use the function which is not taught in the course.

    and so, we have to rely the TIPS mentors give us.

    Best platform for poor students to have grip on technical courses or those students who have scarce opportunities to learn.

    Keep the good work up

    El curso es excelente sin embargo las asignaciones sobrepasan muchas veces en dificultad el contenido de las clases. Igualmente excelente curso.
