In this class, you’ll discover how to automate time-consuming tasks with Python, such as collecting data from websites. Whether your focus is on social media, ecommerce, real estate, travel, or government topics, the ability to instantly gather fresh data from across the internet can be a major advantage.
Write Python code to pull exactly the data you want from a site. Along the way, you’ll learn to create loops that let your web scraping scripts process large numbers of pages automatically.
You’ll pair these core skills with real-world examples of programs that harvest valuable information from well-known sites. The course also covers common mistakes to avoid, how to schedule your scripts, and various formats for saving your scraped data.
This class is ideal for any programming newcomer looking for an introduction to the powerful world of coding, and works well for students with a clear goal of using Python for web or software projects.
