Description

It's not often that you get to use a language as powerful and as versatile as Python. Python is a great language for writing web applications, cross-platform desktop applications, Artificial Intelligence software, shell scripts, perform scientific computation, games, and even connect to and work with a myriad of relational and document-oriented database solutions. This course gets you up and running with using Python to program against relational and document-oriented databases such as SQLite, MySQL, SQL Server, and MongoDB. It teaches you the basic concepts of relational data, databases, tables, SQL, and walks you through the code required to connect to these databases and perform CRUD (create, retrieve, update, and delete) operations within them using Python. When you're finished with this course, you'll have a solid foundation to go out and start building your own database applications using Python.
