"AWESOME BOOK!"
"Absolutely Wonderful, genuinely surprised this exists."
Before reading your explanation ... I just kind of understood [it], but I really am impressed with how simply you explained it, and how much clearer it made it for me to grasp the concept. I had previously come across your book somewhere on the internet, and was a little curious, but now seeing how well you [explain things], I am seriously considering purchasing it in the near future if I have some cash to spare.
"I have already been through the book once, so cheers to such awesome content and excellent idea for learning Python. I am going figure out how to slice and dice the upcoming Capitals Season, try and predict when Ovi will hit/beat 894!"
Dude, this is awesome. Thank you again!
I bought this for my 18 year old who's playing junior hockey looking for something to do in his spare time. He's have a good time going through the lessons and playing with hockey stats!
I happen to be finishing my Sports Management Degree and my final subject is on Data Analytics; I much prefer the learning style you created in the course.
Hi Nathan, I love the Learn to Code With Baseball book, I'm moving through it and enjoying.
Thank you for combining two of my favorite things in life: 🏀 💻
Bought the soccer variation of your book a couple weeks ago, really enjoying it so far.
"Your writing style and presentation has been really intuitive for me."
"The idea is wonderful and I love it!"
I am going through the first chapter now and I love how you've explained everything in a simple yet effective way.
I've been looking for things like this to learn code for a long time.
"Blending my outside interests with my tech expertise never felt so fun, albeit humbling, adventure! ... I used fantasycoding.com by Nathan Braun to analyze stats. It was a great way to learn more about scraping data and creating visualizations that matter with Python. Nathan was super great in guiding you through the process."
"This is the first time I found a book to gradually introduce and explain the ideas!!! ... It seems that not only you know the subject but also you have ways to teach it in order to be understood and be pleasant and interesting!!!"
I'm quite enjoying your book so far.
Thanks for putting together a cool project like this!
The book is great thus far.
"Loving it so far!"
This explanation was fascinating, thank you for continuing to share these!
"I think your [ability] of looking at complex things for a while and being able to break them down into their simple parts in real time is rare."
I just want to thank you for creating this course and I have enjoyed every part of it. [This is] what learning is all about. Previous academic courses has gotten me so disengaged... I loved LTCWFF...
It's looking really great so far!
Loving it so far!
OMG this looks amazing 😊
Love the book!
"Truly impressed"
"Your book is incredible..."
I'm learning a lot and I'm enjoying the book so far.
"Thank you so much for this offering! I was wandering the proverbial forrest trying to get going with Hockey advanced stats - I probably saved myself dozens of hours trying to piece this stuff together myself."
"Thanks again for the fantastic book."
"I am going through your book and find it very intuitive versus others."
I thought it was great! I really enjoyed the way you used soccer as a way to teach programming concepts. It made the material much more engaging and relatable. ... I would highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning Python or programming in general. Thank you for writing such a great book!
[My son is] already over 100 pages into the book and loving the material!
Wonderful. He LOVED it! Best Xmas gift.
I bought your book quite some time ago, but I haven't dug in until now. Wow. Nice work. I mean that. As a former teacher and once-upon-a-time coder, I really appreciate how you go about this.
Great book. ... If you make new books please let me know.
I went through your baseball book and it was FANTASTIC!!
"I think the approach you’re using is fantastic."
