This course (The English copy of "用Python玩转数据" <https://www.coursera.org/learn/hipython/home/welcome>) is mainly for non-computer majors. It starts with the basic syntax of Python, to how to acquire data in Python locally and from network, to how to present data, then to how to conduct basic and advanced statistic analysis and visualization of data, and finally to how to design a simple GUI to present and process data, advancing level by level. This course, as a whole, based on Finance data and through the establishment of popular cases one after another, enables learners to more vividly feel the simplicity, elegance, and robustness of Python. Also, it discusses the fast, convenient and efficient data processing capacity of Python in humanities and social sciences fields like literature, sociology and journalism and science and engineering fields like mathematics and biology, in addition to business fields. Similarly, it may also be flexibly applied into other fields. The course has been updated. Updates in the new version are : 1) the whole course has moved from Python 2.x to Python 3.x 2) Added manual webpage fetching and parsing. Web API is also added. 3) Improve the content order and enrich details of some content especially for some practice projects. Note: videos are in Chinese (Simplified) with English subtitles. All other materials are in English.

It's a basic Python lesson, but providing some data analysis and GUI concepts, which needs you to explore after this class or in the future.
AA
Great course for data analysis, processing, and representation.

课程深入浅出，学到了很多东西！非常值得！然后由于做了笔记，也一边操作，所以以后会经常翻过来查看笔记。

Very nice course. Could be extended to 12 weeks with more detailed coverage of packages. Please upload English audio tracks.
FN
Course content is good but it is in chinese language.
JG
It's actually too simple for me, but I think it's good for the beginners.

This is a great course!!! Thank you so much Prof. Zhang for offering this course here!!!
VK
Excellent input and created interest to work in Python for data processing . Thank You.
PM
Great course to learn python data processing. I think in week-4 need more details. Otherwise this course is fully enjoyable to me. Lots of learning is here. Thank you madam. Thank you university.

The course provides an insight into the basic structure of Python. It will help you in navigating the areas where Python is robust and effective.

Awesome Course Easy for learning but language is difficult some subtitles needed!
Showing: 20 of 128
- In this course, using python 2.x
- The whole course in Chinese, no English subtitles
- There are no additional materials or information
- There is nothing - only the Chinese
There is no subtitles in English for the video lectures and the slides are in Chinese.
The worst off-campus course I have ever had.
First, the whole course was delivered by CHINESE. I filtered the courses setting language English, but this course, NO ENGLISH AT ALL.
Second, the instructor only gave some definition stuff and never showed how to write a program. Do you know the most ineffective teaching way is just reading the slides aloud?
This course should be posted to CHINESE online uni for the students who only want to know WHY PYTHON IS CORRELATED WITH DATA PROCESSING. ^^
Hope no one will waste time and be angry like me.
chineese language only!
The course should be in English.
Not English
Very nice course. Could be extended to 12 weeks with more detailed coverage of packages. Please upload English audio tracks.
THe language of the course should be stated upfront. I had no idea that this was not in English.
Also, when I go to un-enroll from the course it still shows in my dashboard!!

Much of the syntax is outdated in updated external libraries. Would have been helpful to include Python 3 syntax for all programs. Slides were not translated to English, so external sources were required to understand many of the slides.
It's all in Chinese, it got subtitles though yet not doable.
ALL THE VIDEOS ARE IN SOME UNKNOWN LANGUAGE

IN HINDI I WOULD LIKE TO SAY MASTT MAAL MAM PADHA RHI THI TO LANGUAGE BHI DHYAN NHI DIYA BSS PADH GYA ...AND THE END I WOULD LIKE TO SAY I LOVE YOU MAM...AS WELL AS THE WAY U MADE DATA PROCESSING EASY THANKS ALOT.
课程比较短小精悍，覆盖面相对较广，只是我英文不好，有些题目实在时琢磨不透意思。
Difficult to follow and explanations on crucial parts, like installing pip, was far too brief and simply did not work for my laptop.
It wasn´t made clear the course is in Chinese. I would need to spend several years learning Chinese before this. LOL!
Very good course. It was a very new experience for me. learn data processing using Python almost from scratch. It is advisable to have previous knowledge of Data Mining, since that lack of knowledge slows you down a bit in the fourth week. I was surprised by how much the course covers and now I have to use what I learned to gain experience. I speak very little in English so I used several tools to listen to audio in Spanish. There are my annotations in the forum for future students. good luck. :)
An excellent course covering many aspects applications using Python. It introduces many libraries in a way that raise your interest to want to find out more, which is an essential discipline to cultivate because libraries are always changing and new libraries come into being all the time. The lecturer do a great job to motivate her students.
