Ratings and Reviews for Using Python to Access Web Data

something not clearly explained, maybe I was stupid.

Unfortunately on the whole I was very disappointed with this class. I took the first two Python courses and found them manageable, but this third one was an unrealistic increase in difficulty from the previous two. I reached out for help on the discussion board a number of times and saw many others were struggling as well. Mentors who responded to some of the other students were clearly getting defensive when those students were getting nowhere on the assignments. I think this program should reevaluate itself so students such as me can keep up with the assignments. On average I was spending about 10 hours per week just on the syntax for building the programs. A little about my background: I have 20 years of experience in the private sector and am currently an analyst in cyber security. I have an undergraduate degree in finance, an MBA, and another master’s degree in Data Analytics. This 5 course program has been described and sold as beginner level, and given my background I should have handily been able to complete it, but that was definitely not the case. Normally I don’t leave feedback unless I feel strongly about something, so I hope you take it seriously. Thanks.

_(:3 」∠)_（用中文好了） 这个章节字幕君牺牲了，全程英文，给我造成了一些困难，好在课程很基础，对于非计算机专业的人来说（比如我）已经足够了。老师还是一如既往的逗。

This course helped me to understand a lot of things, and gave me the knowledge to create my own web scrapper tool for my web app

I could have all basic knowledge in accessing web data using python. Thank you professor! and Thank you Coursera

Absolutely a MUST for anyone looking for a smooth intro into APIs, HTTP requests, and data exchange on the web. As always, Dr. Charles' magnificent pedagogy will guide you step by step up to the point where you will be sending requests and fetching data from your Twitter account. Create one if yo do not have it yet. :-) It will be absolutely beneficial to update this course to discuss the Twitter library available in Python, wish is far easier to use than the currently explained method.

This course is much harder than the first two but you will learn A LOT!

very useful course. Out of the whole specialization loved it the most !

This is the third course in the Python for Everyone series, which builds on the lessons of the first two courses. The course's automated grading made it easy to continue with each assignment at my own pace; and the way the information is presented makes it easy to learn without getting frustrated.

Great!
