this course is really hands-on and immediately usable in (beginners) projects. Dr. Chuck's enthousiasm and 'simple but effective' way of teaching made me feel a bit like a programmer after 3 courses. Currently doing course 4!

For me, the sample code given in each assignment discloses too much information. It is quite easy to twist just a little bit of the code in order to complete the assignment. I would prefer to have more difficult assignments.

Great course. The instructor is very senior, and makes the knowledge very clear and ready to understand. Further than that, he also shares a lot of hints that you can follow to dig deeper. I love this kind of teaching style.

Me gustó ya que cuando me inscribí no pensé que fuera a familiarizarme tanto con los formatos que usan las páginas web para comunicarse como lo son JSON y XML y como usar Python para extraer información de dichos lenguajes.

Great Course for introduction to using python to access web data. Although the course gets a little heavier here for non-computer science backgrounds, the assignments can be completed with a little effort and understanding

Thank you, prof. Charles Severance.
You have made complex concepts simple and easy to understand. You have the great merit of presenting the essential parts of the subject, as Douglas Crockford teaches: "The Good Parts".

Easy to understand yet very useful course. Each module starts with the basics making it look easy. The assignments are very useful and lets you play with the code to do more than what is asked. Really enjoyed this course!
