Overview
Python doesn't just represent numbers, but also text and other kinds of things. In technical terms, the parts of Python you'll learn are strings, lists, Booleans, errors, lists, and list manipulation. At a higher level you will learn how people use code to represent real-world ideas. In the process you'll use Python to automatically read Wikipedia and Spotify.
This Python Basics - Retrieving Online Data course is offered by Coursera in partnership with UC Davis.
What you'll learn
- Learn strategies for getting coding help and run code to automatically access thousands of pages on Wikipedia.
- Practice playing with text, numbers, true/false values in Python and learn how to handle error messages and ask for help.
- Learn how Python lets us change, grow, access, and play with lists.
- Run code that accesses Twitter from Python, interact with virtually every aspect of Twitter, and learn about social media bots.
