Gary Meade is taking this course right now, spending 1 hours a week on it and found the course difficulty to be easy.
I have only done week 1 but am hooked already. I've taken Dr Chuck's Python for Everyone so knew what to expect, and Chuck doesn't disappoint - he seriously cracks me up, but the best thing is he really loves this stuff and his passion shows. I feel smarter just in the first week of content alone.
