Read MoreI belong to mechanical background and started leaning any kind of programming in my life with this course. This is too good for a beginner like me. The content is properly given and exercise and activities are also good. Video explainations help a lot ! The only problem I faced was the kernel busy problem in the Jupyter IDE. Otherwise I found Jupyter most user friendly as compared to other IDEs. Thanks Packt for this course !

Read MoreI have attended many python workshops, but this one is really great, the content is super awesome. Actually all the courses workshops i ever attended they never taught me (for ex. say logging) everything in python, but this workshop even covers the python from beginner to advanced. With activities included, this workshop made me think more and more rather than just going through the content and reading text and videos. I learned a ton here. Thank you for all the coaches who creating this extra ordinary content.

Read MoreTaking into account Python and therefore Jupyter Notebooks as a "platform" isn't a problem at all, since it's common. Setting up by "cloning" a github repository was very easy. The toolboxes for visualization in focus are Matplotlib (famous), Seaborn, Geoplotlib. The order makes sense and in order to get Python basics pandas and numpy are also introduced first. Finally Bokeh is introduced as an interactive tool with no deep-dive but explaining the concept and options. At the end there will be a summary. The quizzes are not that easy in my opinion and you really should follow every topic and do the exersices, activities. Thanks for this perfect designed workshop course and the good example datasets.

Read MoreHad some familiarity with Python before starting the course and working through the exercises and activities, certainly picked up some things that I had missed before and filled some gaps in my knowledge. Course needs a bit of proof-reading as a number of errors sprinkled throughout. Found the Activities needed a little more guidance rather than being vague but worked out in the end. Overall excellent course, especially for those beginning with Python as covers a full spectrum of Python requirements. Many thanks

Read MoreThe Workshop is really good and covers a lot of content starting from basics till advance. The Workshop explain how things work by using simple language, so you don't feel like you're just copying code—you're actually understanding what you're writing, and why. In particular, I appreciate this JavaScript Workshop because of the exercise and the activities given for each and every concept. The workshop also show students how to problem-solve like a developer: what to type into Google when you're stuck, how to get to the bottom of an error message, etc. I think the understanding the core concept was very beneficial and think it would help me become a better developer in the future. Amazing breakdowns that really help fill in knowledge gaps. Great exercises with fully detailed explanations. I am satisfied with the course. I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn JS(JavaScript). Edit: I want to add another thing. The quiz given after every section is very important. It gives me how much I understand the section. the quiz also displays the explanation of each answer along with whether my selected answer is right or wrong.

Read MoreThis workshop gives a provide broad insight into python, more to practical exercises and activities. There are some problems tough, like some wrong script, redundant question, and no clear definition on some part (around 15% of 100% I guess), but the discussion part is helpful, coz sometimes with reading discussion part make some problem clear. My suggestion is to make the workshop perfect by validating the disscussion part.
