About the Course

This course will introduce the core data structures of the Python programming language. We will move past the basics of procedural programming and explore how we can use the Python built-in data structures such as lists, dictionaries, and tuples to perform increasingly complex data analysis. This course will cover Chapters 6-10 of the textbook “Python for Everybody”. This course covers Python 3....

I feel incredible that I knew almost nothing about programming just a month ago. Now I have done two of the courses of the specialization and I can actually understand other basic codes. Great course!

This course is good for starting Python Data Structure. It's not much easy for me. I spent a lot of time to do assignments and read read read. However I gain a lot of knowledge and experience though asignments. I reccomend you guys!

Very much essential for beginners/intermediate. The instructor had taken enough time to make sure the concept of data structures in python is made clear to the learners. I truly appreciate the efforts of the professor. Thanks a ton.

Dr. Charles Severence is an amazing tutor. The way he handles the concepts and structures them to aid the ease of understanding among the course takers while also making sure that the lectures are enjoyable is commendable. 5/5 stars

Doing this course was a fun experience for me. All these new terms- dictionaries, tuples, etc. were pretty intimidating at first but turned out to be pretty easy. Dr. Chuck's delivery of course material immediately puts one at ease.

For the first time since I started learning Python, I got to use it to do something useful. This course has now opened my eyes to the wider possibilities of things I can do with Python. Many thanks to Dr Chuck and the Coursera team.

Great course that let us know how to implement data structure on file data. Everywhere else they teach the use of lists on some random, less complex data. But here they teach us to use a list, tuples, and dictionary on complex data.

I Think This Course Is All About FIle Structure of Python And How To Handle Files And Operations on File In Python Not About Data Structure So You Should Change The Name Of The Course Or You Should Change The Content Of This Course.

Very-very-very thanks! I'm a philologist, this course is a dream. Now I can make myself a frequency dictionary of the text, 20 years I wanted it. Professor Severance is brilliant. He is able to teach a Python even a bedside table :)

This course won't let you down with exercises that don't apply to what you'd really use in real life. This is clearly the best course on the subject for the beginner programmer. Really. It's seriously the best on the internet today.

DR. Chuck's teaching methodology is extremely engaging and simplistic. The exercises are very well designed. Attempting them not only strengthens our concepts but also boosts confidence in our acquired knowledge. Thankyou Dr. Chuck.

More interesting than the first course. Topics are interesting and help form a foundation for using Python. The exercises were more challenging and interesting to work, causing more thought with how the tasks needed to be completed.

Just like the previous class on these Specialization. The teaching method and the dynamics of the class is very enjoyable. Finally, I am learning Python without the suffering.

Excellent course, excellent teacher, excellent material.

Very elaborate explanations in a way you feel you can do it. Dr. Chuck really is a great teacher. Also the clips about the history of computing are very worthwhile and just shows how far we have come and better : how far we can get.

Dr. Chuck is outstanding. He exceeds my expectations as to what I would like to get out of this course. His teaching methods keeps his audience interested. I personally am on a mission and want to learn more. We need more like him.

Now I am getting interested in this language. In the previous course, some topics seemed hard that I used to just use without a clear understanding. I think I am overcoming those problems after completing this course. Thanks a lot.

I had no previous experience with Python. I have already taken two courses (Python for Everybody and Python Data Structures), and I have found them to be extremely easy for beginners like myself. I strongly recommend these courses.

Brilliant intro to Data structures. The lectures are sufficient to understand the concepts, and the Graded exercise helps put them in practice. I will suggest attempting ALL problems from the textbook chapters as well for practice.

As an old timer I used to struggle dealing with Data Structures in C Programming and this course brought me upto date so effectively and easily. I now understand why Python is critical in today's world. Thank you very much Charles

brilliant course. The course was so neatly laid out and the assignments and quizzes are deigned to reinforce the concepts learned in the respective chapters. The videos are not too long and you can just finish a course in 1 weekend

Charles is my main man. He does an amazing job of explaining things in such intuitive ways and you gotta love his sense of humor. Plus the course itself is suuuuper informative. They've really found a nice cadence for the material.

All credit goes to the lecturer. It was explained in a very good way. to build the base strong. I started python with strings, but now I feel like taking the basic course also like loops and functions. Thank you very much Dr Chuck.
