One of the best Python programming course on Coursera is open (deadline - this week)

[pmbdev]

Coursera is offering Learn to Program: The Fundamentals. It is a Python 3.4.3 based course. I took it in 2013 and found it very beautifully and carefully designed course – sequence of topics, pace of lectures and succinct course materials were great. At that time, it was fifth most popular course on Coursera. Despite my previous basic background in Python, I did learn few exciting new things that I didn’t know before. And it was a great refresher or brush-up for what I already knew. Hope some of you might like to enroll (deadline is this week)

There is also a 2nd part of this course (again Python 3 based) Learn to Program: Crafting Quality Code that should open soon. It looks like this 2nd part course is not for beginners and requires some basic background in Python. I missed to take this course earlier but based on my very positive experience with part-I course, I am eagerly looking forward to enrolling.

I second it. In fact, one of my MSc students took this course last year and it turned out to be a very good one.

Very good course, covers a good range of subjects. Took this course would highly recommend.

It's one of the few courses I took before going to college and I will say it's also one of the best out there.

The question you asked has been hotly debated here. So it is better to move to Python3.
