About the Course

This course will introduce students to the basics of the Structured Query Language (SQL) as well as basic database design for storing data as part of a multi-step data gathering, analysis, and processing effort. The course will use SQLite3 as its database. We will also build web crawlers and multi-step data gathering and visualization processes. We will use the D3.js library to do basic data visualization. This course will cover Chapters 14-15 of the book “Python for Everybody”. To succeed in this course, you should be familiar with the material covered in Chapters 1-13 of the textbook and the first three courses in this specialization. This course covers Python 3....

The course is great... You can definitely learn many things... Was kind of hard for me and i went many times back and forth through most of the lectures... However i think i learn many new things....

This course was great! I enjoyed parsing different types of data: from documents and the web. This course is definitely (rudimentary) a must take course for anyone who wants to go into data science.

El curso es genial y Charles explica muy bien. Pero los prácticos van de más a menos. El último es demasiado fácil.

Peer graded assingments take a lot of time because you need to be graded by three others and a instructure from UM.

Its good, as the other course, but the extension of the topics, maybe need to make another specialization for it.

Topics covered are great, but there is a lack of assignments to be done by students completely on themselves.

A very good introduction.

Could use some more complex cases and possibly different types of databases.
