The course is EXCELLENT. But... It's not for beginners!!! If you don't know anything about programming, python and bioinformatics it's nearly impossible to do without help.

It was really frustrating.

This is not for beginners. You need to know more about python to complete it easily and the time limits of Stepik is not correct. It needs far more time than mentioned.

This course is definitely not for beginners. I was on the verge of giving up throughout the course. But once you get ahold of the concepts, it is very interesting.

The course tries hard to balance programming and biology but the programming can become quite a challenge for people with little to no experience in programming.

Although this course was uniquely interesting and insightful, I did feel at times that the lesson material was insufficient to fully understand a concept.

Although this course is possible for beginners, some of the programming problems were frustrating and a hint would have been appreciated.

Not truly for beginners. If you don't have previous knowledge of Python and algorithms expect to invest a lot more than 4 hours a week

Adorei a dinâmica do curso, porém o prazo de término das atividades é extremamente incoerente com a quantidade de afazeres propostos.

this course was very useful for me but it is very very difficult for a beginner, I was suffering from trying to understand it

There were some technical issues nut the course structure was impressive, learning experience was challenging yet joyful.

Very difficult for no coding background people. It would be really helpful if you could describe the error in better ways

This course requires advanced programming skills, the first week has taken 3 weeks from me and I am still stuck.

This course although well taught does not take into account those that know nothing about programming

the instructions in the stepik notes were unclear. i would say the optional lecture video was better

quite difficult for a begginer we have to practice python first before starting the course

This course is not for beginners. It is for those with background computer knowledge

This course is so much difficult and it is definitely not the one for beginners.

Very interesting but i don't like switching e-learning platforms

Good, but it is difficult for biology background students

Useful but terribly difficult, it is not for beginners

The course design is not clear as the video explained

navigating the python learning was a bit stressful

not for beginner who does not know any programming

Note: actually this course is not for beginners..

Need more instructions for beginners like me
