Master data filtering, cleaning, and more for web scraping projects!

Data cleaning is an integral topic for data science as it allows us to leverage data easily and in more powerful ways. In this course, you’ll use Beautiful Soup and Python to discover how to ethically extract data from the web, parse the information through intermediate techniques, and filter the data to produce clean data sets. These skills will allow you to masterfully clean data from anywhere and provide your projects with a solid base to more easily manipulate and analyze the data.

A basic understanding of HTML, CSS, Python, and web scraping with Beautiful Soup are needed for this course.

You will learn how to:

- Write and read to local files
- Obey ethical standards with robots.txt
- Use lists, lambdas, and custom functions
- Filter through headings and tables
- Create dictionaries of links
- Extract and save images

… and more!
