Ratings and Reviews for Using Python to Access Web Data

Great lectures and instructor. I love this course and learnt a lot.

Charles Severance focuses on practical applications with just enough theory. This gives you enough tooling to work independently with web data and doesn't require much time commitment. Thank you to this course's team.

Really nice course. Help was available when I needed it, however I think some of the integration of urllib needed to be better elaborated.

Excellent course and excellent instructor. I highly recommend taking this course!

First, thank you Dr. Chuck for the well-designed class. Here are a few things that may help improve this class: first, it might make more sense if you introduce python class or object first, then the package and method and return type will make more sense. second, it could include more coding for scraping on the web, the examples are very limited(well, ok I understand this is a pretty introductory course....) Last, for those who use python3, there are many thinks you should notice to make ur code work, such as from bs4 import BeautifulSoup, also notice the urllib has been split so you should import urllib.request and urllib.parse, also for those return value as byte, use decode('utf8') to convert it to strings, otherwise it will cause a lot of trouble in json

Really awesome course to know how to access web data using python. I love this materials because those materials are excellent, excellent teaching style perfect examples.

There are many details don't explain clearly enough for a beginner to understand.

Thanks

Too expensive

Excellent learning platform!
