It was great to get a better sense of the Python language. The course gave a great overview of the data analysis and visualization tools.

In a nutshell of the 13 Statistics.com courses I have completed to date, this is one of the top three in the intellectual excitement it generated, and the very best taught of all.  Prof. Sen has created a jewel of a class,packing an entire semester's work into 4 weeks, but doing so with such intelligence, panache, and elegance that I enjoyed every minute of the many hours I devoted to it.  His deft blending of video lectures, outside reading, sample programs, and personal feedback on homework was exemplary.  It would have taken me a whole year to learn this material on my own, if I could have done so at all.  I cannot praise this course highly enough
