About the Course

This course introduces the basics of Python 3, including conditional execution and iteration as control structures, and strings and lists as data structures. You'll program an on-screen Turtle to draw pretty pictures. You'll also learn to draw reference diagrams as a way to reason about program executions, which will help to build up your debugging skills. The course has no prerequisites. It will cover Chapters 1-9 of the textbook "Fundamentals of Python Programming," which is the accompanying text (optional and free) for this course. The course is for you if you're a newcomer to Python programming, if you need a refresher on Python basics, or if you may have had some exposure to Python programming but want a more in-depth exposition and vocabulary for describing and reasoning about programs. This is the first of five courses in the Python 3 Programming Specialization....

Good at what it's there for, teaching the basics of Python. As someone who already knew C#, it was pretty simple but useful to learn the syntax differences between the languages.

É um curso bom. Explicações são muito boas, assim como o material para acompanhamento, exercícios, etc.

A única coisa que senti falta foi de ter exercícios mais desafiadores.

Great for beginners, or for anyone looking for a refresher. The runstone interactive makes sure you get through the concepts by actually coding the code. Great Initiative!!!

You can only move on, if you solve the problems. Really nice way of learning. However it is not always clear how to solve the problem, so sometimes you are stuck for ages.
