Nina is a great instructor and made a lot of information easy to digest. This is an excellent place to start for anyone that wants to learn Python.
This was my first Python course, and it covered the fundamentals very well. Lots of exercise to work upon. Highly recommended!!
I just completed "Practical Guide to Python" by Nina on Frontend Masters! It is indeed quite practical and right to the point.
Wow "Practical Guide to Python" was fun! And a lot to go though.
