I just finished course 1 . But I haven’t passed the Lab assignment on week 2 and haven’t started the Lab assignment on week 3 yet . Will I have access to course 2 Advanced Learning Algorithms as soon as I pass both assignments or Courses 2 and 3 are independent and I need to pay another subscription ?
By the way, I need help with these 2 assignments .

Hi, thanks . But to be honest it does not make sense. Throughout the course, Andrew always said to not worry so much about Python skills in order to complete the course . Therefore, i will need to go over Python to complete the 2 assignments ?
I should at least be able to move forward to course 2 and 3 and then go back to the assignments at the end as I have to study Python .
I think Andrew has said to not worry too much about the math, and that the programming assignments contain enough hints to accomplish the assignments.
Nearly all Machine Learning courses assume you have some familiarity with computer programming in general, and Python in particular. Expert skills are not needed, but the basics of programming methods (i.e. how do I run a program, how do functions work, etc) are assumed.
I do not recommend proceeding with the later courses without completing the programming assignments along the way. Going back to do the programming assignments later will still require you to be subscribed to the course, so it won’t save much time.
Perhaps you can get the necessary fundamental Python skills from some quick online tutorials on Python Basics - there are a lot of free tutorials on a popular video sharing site, for example.
OK, I will study Python from tomorrow on . My concern is about the course that I am paying 49/month, Machine Learning from Stanford . There are deadlines for the assignments and I am afraid i will not be able to get my certificate after I finish the 2 pending assignments . As it might take me like 2 weeks to study Python and then go back to the assignments .
I still didn’t understand if I will have access right away to Advanced Learning Algorithms /course 2/ and Unsupervised Learning /course 3/ as soon as I pass the 2 assignments
or
If my course is over and I have the subscribe separately for these 2 courses .
Can you forward this message to the person responsible for this issue ?
This depends entirely on what type of enrollment you signed up for. You might be paying a monthly subscription. Or you might have purchased just a specific course, or maybe you purchased the entire Specialization.
No one at DLAI is responsible for knowing this. Your subscription is with Coursera, not DLAI.
