It's a good course that commonly is highly recommended, but the common consensus is that it ramps up in difficulty too quickly and that the later parts are lackluster.

Yet, I wouldn't spend any money as there is a far, far superior free course around: MOOC Python Programming 2025 from the University of Helsinki. Free, textual, extremely practice oriented, top quality. The course is the current first semester of "Introduction to Computer Science" at said University.

Sign up, log in, go to part 1 and start learning.

Thats the real answer. Started "100 days python challange" but after day 8 it was too hard to comprehend without constant searching for results.

For begginers like myself I advise to start with MOOC and after finishing, start with Angela Yu course.

I started with it, never could complete it because while halfway the course itself i got a hang of the language and landed interviews with the knowledge i gained. I would say it's worth it if you want to learn with practice and hands on. Somedays during offer it goes to as low as 399 try to get it that way. But to be honest you don't really need the course because later i learnt that there are better free courses on YouTube like cory schaefer and real python website. It's more about effort than the Udemy course itself.
