Ratings and Reviews for Using Python to Access Web Data

This course really teaches me what I wanted to know. Text and sample codes are wonderful. I think it's easier now for me to step up. Thank you.

This is the third course I have taken from Dr. Chuck, and I have loved them all. His teaching style matches my learning style and I find Python to be an easy to learn and easy to use language.

Great course

Very good course, I would like to have seen some more challenging assignment. Other than that, very stimulating and learned a lot about web protocols and data.

The professor does a great job of explaining the content in an easily understandable way and is very practical. The assignments require very minimal adjustments to sample code from the lessons so this is far easier than a typical course or say the EdX MIT intro to python course. I came in feeling comfortable in rudimentary python and leave now feeling a lot more prepared to use those skills manipulating the web and calling APIs.

Extremely good explanations as all courses in the specialization (sometimes much too well explained, as the course targets complete beginners). Additionally, it provides a lot of value by effectively stringing a series on mini courses on specific standard Python libraries, which is something not found everywhere: * the regular expressions library * libraries for web communication (socket and urllib) * parsing HTML (beautiful soup) * data transfer libraries (XML and JSON)

Excellent

Thank You! Very excited about the next course!

Fantastic Dr. Chuck course - by far the most motivating course I went thru on coursera. Well do to Chuck and Congratulation to your (behind the curtains) team for their work too.

Dr. Chuck as allways makes me feel myself smarter than I thought before his courses.
