Ratings and Reviews for Using Databases with Python

Great as the others!

The best section so far. Applications could have been a bit more challenging. Great work Dr Severance.

Same as the 3 previous courses in this specialization, this one is also very informative. And the explanations are very clear. Only one thing I realize after these 4 courses -- exercises are all very simple, or rather, the difficult part of the exercises are already made, and we only need to add very simple part of the code. This way we don't get much practice. As a result, when i wanted to program something myself, i needed to search for references constantly. But probably the final project of the specialization is exactly there to cover the practicing part. Looking forward to it.

Look no further! University of Michigan's Charles Severance courses are a MUST if you want to learn Python or basics of programming. Bonus videos really put a perspective on how all of the pieces of the computer/internet puzzle fit together. Highly recommended!

good course, very elementary

Very helpful and interesting course!

Great course to get an overview of mysql.

Awesome classes and Material!

The course material was very good but the assignments were boring and unchallenging

Dr Chuck makes the daunting look less daunting. Subjects covered include exploration of API, grounding in data scraping etiquette, basic data modeling economical database normalization, continuation of Google API geocoding, use of Python for scraping and cleaning data. The course assumption is that if you made it this far, you can handle a speedier pace of content delivery. The discussion forums are more valuable too, as one learns what libraries and functions differ between Python 2.7.x and Python 3.x.
