常见问题
This Coursera version includes interactive features not available in our standalone content, including Coursera Coach, which is an AI-powered learning assistant that can answer your questions, break down complex concepts, and provide personalized guidance as you learn. You'll also have access to additional practice quizzes and assessments that help reinforce key concepts and let you test your understanding before moving forward. These enhancements transform the passive video experience into an interactive learning journey with real-time support and feedback.
You are expected to have basic knowledge of Python, including the ability to locally run a Python Notebook.
To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
