    About the Course

    This course will show how one can treat the Internet as a source of data. We will scrape, parse, and read web data as well as access data using
    web APIs. We will work with HTML, XML, and JSON data formats in Python. This course will cover Chapters 11-13 of the textbook “Python for
    Everybody”. To succeed in this course, you should be familiar with the material covered in Chapters 1-10 of the textbook and the first two
    courses in this specialization. These topics include variables and expressions, conditional execution (loops, branching, and try/except),
    functions, Python data structures (strings, lists, dictionaries, and tuples), and manipulating files. This course covers Python 3.

    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.
