It is a good course and teaches with the basic of Python so that anyone can understand it very well. Videos are good and can easily be understandable to anyone who is new to Python and Data Science.

The course material does not seem as continuous as I would prefer. Each concept seems a bit independent.

Not as challenging as I hoped for. Would have been nicer if had coding tests instead of theory tests.

The final assignment is more about how to use the storage of IBM then to learn how to code in Python.
