    About the Course

    In the capstone, students will build a series of applications to retrieve, process and visualize data using Python. The projects will involve all the
    elements of the specialization. In the first part of the capstone, students will do some visualizations to become familiar with the technologies in
    use and then will pursue their own project to visualize some other data that they have or can find. Chapters 15 and 16 from the book “Python
    for Everybody” will serve as the backbone for the capstone. This course covers Python 3.

    Now I understand how data mining, API's and dumping and retrieving data from a database works. Excellent course to start understanding how python can be used to work with data sources on the internet.

    Very exceedingly practical concepts taught in this specialization. The teaching techniques aren't perfect, but what is taught is absolutely superb! The things you learn in this course you will use about every day of your programming life.

    A bit easy with the capstone project as the course provides every material so there's not much compulsory coding. Good for beginners like me as it gives me a sense of data mining and visualization. Really helpful to learning paths ahead.

    I did not take any programming classes before I took this one. Everything about this series

    of courses is fantastic. If you have no prior experience in Python or coding in general you can still do great on this course. Highly recommend

    There is a question in the quiz which is a joke from science fiction. So look out for it. When I submitted the quiz and saw the hint, I was like wait... what! Is that really the question? It was funny. Dr Charles is amazing as usual.

    Python with Dr Chuck is the best computer class I've taken in many years. I am incredibly grateful to him and the staff, not to mention Coursera, VTS Online, and the University of Michigan for helping me obtain this opportunity.

    Great course with a lot of practical examples. The code repos were awesome way to learn Python rather than just the theory. Apart from the lectures, the bonus interviews were inspiring. Thanks you Dr. Chuck for adding those here!

    Chuck is a very good teacher. The course is gradually increasing difficulty, but always entertained and understandable. The good sense of humor and the special get together of Chuck with students around the wqorld, makes a plus.

    For someone who had ZERO background in programming, this course has given me the confidence that any skill can be learned if only you put in the effort regardless.

    Highly recommend this course to all those programming pioneers.

    Dr. Chuck gives a material and you can implement any data visualization you like and be proud of your result! The Capstone helps you to think about ways of doing your own project and teaches how to do it. Nice course!
