About the Course

Code and run your first python program in minutes without installing anything! This course is designed for learners with no coding experience, providing a solid foundation of not just python, but core Computer Science topics that can be transferred to other languages. The modules in this course cover printing, operators, iteration (i.e., loops), and selection (i.e., conditionals). To allow for a truly hands-on, self-paced learning experience, this course is video-free. Assignments contain short explanations with images and runnable code examples with suggested edits to explore code examples further, building a deeper understanding by doing. You'll benefit from instant feedback from a variety of assessment items along the way, gently progressing from quick understanding checks (multiple choice, fill in the blank, and un-scrambling code blocks) to small, approachable coding exercises that take minutes instead of hours....

Very educative and helpful to learn at a slow pace, without listening to long lectures. Lot of practicing is involved with is helpful for perfecting the Python basics.

A good interactive course that would have been improved with video content or a reading to introduce topics or provide an overview of each of the topics prior to starting the practical examples.

The grading system is really bad + usually output messages are copied by programmers, however one of the out put messages in the primary color question is missing an "a"

Nice break from the usual courses that are "listen and watch a video" to "read description, then practice with examples".

Not too bad. A decent review. Clunky interface though, could be improved.

For a course that has basics in the title, you would think it would be basic. It has no vidoes, just a few pages telling you to copy and paste code and just at the end of week 1, it's telling you to actually work it out it yourself which is mimpossible as you haven't actually learned much of anything yet.

Th course itself is alright. The codio tool has bugs that are frustrating.
