Ratings and Reviews for Using Python to Access Web Data

thanks Dr.chuck for your clear and accurate explanation thanks a lot coursera

a little bit challenging but also interesting!

clear many concept in python

Some of instruction were not clear to me.

The speed of teaching should be appropriate. Its very difficult to follow in few occasions.

im loving this course so far!

This is an absolutely interesting and helpful course. It was a bit difficult in the middle but the feeling of completing the course is so awesome. Many thanks to Dr.Chuck for this course.

Interesting. However, a little bit long for the little content. The code doesn't seem very elaborated nor pythonic and as if it were done in a hurry. The assignments do not ask you to program, but just to do minor changes to the code. Assignments have realistic expected times for completion.

too hard for a beginner

As the two first courses in the "Python for Everyone Specialization", this course is great. I had never done any programming in retrieving data from the web before and it was really fun being capable of learning and doing it. However, since the lecture videos exploit a lot of the API set ups for Google and Twitter services, I expected assignments would demand these kind of things. On the other hand, as it is a begginer's course, I thought extremely useful as my first contact in retrieving data in different formats (html, xml, json) and in understanding what an API is. Once again, thanks for Professor Severance and all the staff supporting this specialization!
