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....

Well taught course, with material made easy to understand and discussed in an engaging way. The assignments really help to solidify your understanding and are like puzzles that I enjoy working at.

Course is worthwhile taking and Dr. Severance is engaging in the videos. People new to Python should read book chapters prior to viewing videos so as to familiarize themselves with the subject matter.

Database code is just a walkthrough. It should have been more details... Its hard to understand the code :(

Nice course but didn't include enough python code for other database vendors and wasn't challenging enough

I do not find this course is useful to learn seems it only gives a guideline to the python database.

Week 5 was not well explained and structured. Few things were confusing concepts were missing.

It seemed to me a little bit too superficial... It was almost only copying and pasting code...

The exercises need more work done if the students are expected to actually learn this stuff.

Very interesting but a lot of the code is unexplained and assumes we will understand it.

I think it would be good to include into course following topics:

1) NoSQL databases

2) ORMs

Very good, but rather brief. It does teach you the basics, but uses Python 2, not 3.

Assignment level not up to the mark. way too easy and obvious problems were there.

I think it can further explore the libraries and constructs of the algorithms.

Not so much hands-on work in this course.

Give us more homework please! ;-)
