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....

I love that this course builds on top of previous ones so you can see it all coming together.

I recommend this course for everyone who's willing to expand the scope of their skills in programming

This is a god overview on using databases with Python. It will not go in details but will give a good broad view of the matter.

database is one of the most useful parts of programming I think, and this will be the field I would like particularly pursue to

Well explained. You could have also explained different types of joins. But i understand that is out of the scope of the course

Good introduction to databases using python. The assignments with Google are a bit hard if you do not want to get the api key.

Nice course. Would be better if also includes sample code/tutorial/video for connection to other databases. Thanks Dr. Chunk.

I think this one is a little bit too easy. It's better if the Professor asks us to do more instead of providing all the code.
