Select Topics in Python: Natural Language Processing

Code and run your first NLP program in minutes without installing anything! This course is designed for learners who have some experience with Python but are a novice to NLP. The modules in this course cover processing and analyzing text; analyzing speech, syntax, and semantics; and building a chatbot. To allow for a truly hands-on, self-paced learning experience, this course is video-free. Assignments contain short explanations with images and runnable code examples with suggested edits to explore code examples further, building a deeper understanding by doing. You’ll benefit from instant feedback from a variety of assessment items along the way, gently progressing from quick understanding checks (multiple choice, fill in the blank, and un-scrambling code blocks) to slowly building features, resulting in large coding projects at the end of the course.
