I sincerely appreciate that your captioning services are helping a deaf person out here! Thank you!!!

I've watched 100s of videos, you are the only one who truly explain it to the beginner level. Thank you so much!

It's been a month or so that I've been looking for simple yet rich Python tutorial. Hands Down this is the best book/video I could possibly find. Thank you Dr. Chuck!

I've actually read Chapter 1 before this lecture, but I must confess that I now have an even deeper understanding about the concept of Python programming...Thanks Dr. Chuck.

Definitely good work. At 39:40 he explains *why* we should still use flowcharts when teaching programming.

I will take my first programming course in he fall. I am so glad that I found this course on Cousera. He is already making the class easy for me.

excellent explaination for those beginners who wants to learn python.

I just finished your Internet History..., and thought I try this. Thanks for all the free education!

[SentMKG]

I am at learning programming and it was the only course I failed at utterly in my classes. You are a fantastic teacher! Thank you so much for this video and this class. I am going to stick with this and learn it as best I can! 

Thanks!

The best educational video I've ever watched on the internet.

I made a very contempt girlish "squee" noise when I got Python to answer a question with such little input.  Day has been made, thank you so much.

I don´t know anything about programming, but thanks to this video I am now wondering if at some point in time I can actually learn a little bit with Python and your help. I thought at my age I couldn´t learn any programming or that I would not understand a word, but you have made me think twice and say to myself "Maybe you can do it". Thanks for this video.

This is the difference between a programmer educator and a simple programmer.... You are truly an educator and the 1 hour passed like it was just a 10 minutes lecture.

Thanks so much for putting together this series. I really appreciate your style of instruction, and am looking forward to progressing through the course. Let the PyGames begin!

[palmerrussell]

Thank you for the lesson and for simplifying seemingly difficult topics. I am enrolled into your open-ed Blackboard course and look forward to its start.

[johnpixle]

Awesomely transmitive teaching. Truly inspiring. Thank you for your effort to put this together.

[etisdew]

I wanted alittle information on the language specific data types on python and found your video on dicts useful. My guess from further content is that this a good start for anyone going into this as their first language.
