TOP REVIEWS FROM DATA COLLECTION AND PROCESSING WITH PYTHON
Excellent coursework and exercises to learn, especially for beginners -
Really liked the presentation and constant support - seems like they know how people think while learning python :)
Excellent course which teaches how to process request, extract and process Internet data in a simple and step by step approach. I have gained invaluable skills how to handle large data with Python
I have studied first 4 courses of this specialization and I can say that they are very good courses for all beginners. The courses don't touch into high complex topics compared
The class is very basic. Excellent for people without a programming background. Slow for those who do, but you can skip through concepts you already understand. The exercises are very useful.
