Decent introduction course, but a bit convoluted in how the information is presented. There was often excessive reliance on metaphors to describe various aspects of coding, followed by incredibly fast paced and advanced demonstrations, more metaphors, and then simple and/or irrelevant exercises which require a lot of further reading to complete, before the methodology is then explained after. Doesn't seem like the most efficient learning process, and there could have been a lot more hands on coding examples to try.

As a beginner programmer, it felt like some complex topics were repeated many times and overexplained while basic concepts felt underexplained or glossed over. The videos often repeated themselves and felt like they often included unnecessary information. However, it covered lots of topics I didn't know about and topics that were excluded from other courses I looked into. The quizzes were helpful, but I wished there were more practice coding assignments and labs.

I found this course a bit too hard for a beginner, with little to no direction for the coding I was writing. I have a Bachelor's degree in Engineering, looking to switch careers. I have extensive computer knowledge, but I do not think that this course is good for Python beginners. You need to know some Python coding in order to get through this without becoming frustrated.

This course was designed for a experienced programmer. It does not teach you to code it drops you into the deep end of the pool and sees if you sink or float. This course is also more focused on coding etiquette than coding lessons.
