I have decided to get hands on again and learn a new language, Python! I have been working through your courses, Python Jumpstart, Pythonic code and Python for Entrepreneurs in parallel. They are amazing and your teaching is fantastic.
For anyone who is on the fence, take the course, I was in the beginner ~ intermediate level and started his courses, immediate return on investment. Great teaching Michael!
When I first learned how to interface Python with the multitude of web services and data sources on the internet, a whole new world of automation opened up for me.
Python is a fantastic language to connect different services and to process data from all kinds of sources. But trying to find good tutorials on how to work with these services and their variety of data formats had me smacking my head against the table... That is until I found "Consuming HTTP Services in Python".
What I love about Michael's course is that it covers the whole spectrum-from web scraping with BeautifulSoup to parsing JSON from well-structured RESTful APIs.
So whether you're dealing with plain binary data, JSON or XML encoded responses, or even SOAP services, the course always has your back.
"Consuming HTTP Services in Python" is organized well and easy to follow along. Michael's delivery as an instructor clear and to the point. The editing work is excellent. As a result I can highly recommend this course for anyone wanting to learn more about interfacing with data sources on the web using Python
I just wanted to thank you for taking the time to make you're amazing training courses. I just got finished with the jump start by building 10 apps and it has been the best training course I've used by far. Most other courses or videos I've watched focus either on the concepts or just the application non have put them together and seamlessly as you have. I feel like i have an actual understanding of python now instead of just piecing things together i find on stack overflow.
