DESCRIPTION
During this course, you will learn how to analyze text data using the Python programming language. No programming knowledge is required; we believe that anyone can learn how to program.
You will learn how to extract information from text corpora; deal with different file types (plain text, CSV, JSON). We will focus on readability and understandability of your code so that you will be able to share it with others, and reuse your code in the future.
Contact hours listed under a course description may vary due to the combination of lecture-based and independent work required for each course therefore, CEA's recommended credits are based on the ECTS credits assigned by VU Amsterdam. 1 ECTS equals 28 contact hours assigned by VU Amsterdam.
