This course was really interesting and did a good job introducing complicated topics in usefully simplified form. It was a pleasure to listen to the instructor and I got everything I wanted out of it.

Gah! The second last assignment...for items in data['comments'] :Took me an hour to figure out that I needed to add that last bit in brackets! It just did the for loop twice each time... All the best!

Excellent - but I wish that the course had tougher assignments to really push me to practice on the topic - although I admit this is hard to grade.

very interesting course gving an introduction to the use of Python to work with web data
Maybe too quick but in any case, it is a good introduction.

The pace of the course was just right however the difficulty level was slightly higher than I expected and the assignments were also pretty tough!

It would be better if there were more explanations and details of the codes. But I really learnt a lot since I did a lot of self teaching. Thanks!

Overall it is a great course, but I think the parts about web scraping and APIs could have more explanations since they are complicated concepts.

Please change the second assignement in week 6! The geojson homework is completely broken! Apart from that a nice overview to get into this topic

This is a bit complex than first two course of Python specialization. Complex codes should be more elaborately explained specially in API parts.

Still very good but some code parts were too fast explained to be correctly learned - I would have needed more steps to understand it better ...

I wish greater detail was used for the api access...for instance twurl install didn't work so wasn't able to test various functionality using it

Strange as it may seem, I would have liked more assignments to reinforce all the new concepts I tripped over on my way to finishing this course.

"http://www.py4e.com/code3/geoxml.py" is not suitable sample code for assignment "Extracting data from XML". It makes thing looked complicated.

Though it rushes on some of the advanced concepts, making it difficult to master them, it still a great example of what MOOCs should look like.

Great course! The reason why I didn't give 5 stars is that assignments are too easy. If we can resolve some real problems, that will be better.

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.

Good survey of different skills needed and problems that you may encounter. I didn't always feel prepared to complete some of the assignments.

It was Ok! The preofessor has a good style of teaching, but the depth of material could have been better and the assignments more challenging.

it will be slightly confusing during starting as we cross and go to xml it gets easier
dont stop with week 3 just go ahead you can complete it

overall covered a lot of interesting material - hope to see more classes that dive deeper into webscraping and not just getting at the basics

A step up from the previous 2 courses. it would have been helpful to include links to more documentation for things like parsing, XML, JSON.

XML was too tough. More time should have been spent to explain how to parse data and use it through xml.Otherwise this course was AWESOME!!!

All these courses really need to be updated to Python 3. There is no advantage in sticking to Python 2 anymore with Python4 on the horizon

The last API assignment was really confusing. I used the code sample from PY4E website and it worked in one try without changing anything.
