Introduction

In this section we will be looking at understanding how the web works from a programming perspective, including getting the content of web pages, parsing them to extract information, and looking at common ways in which applications exchange data between them.

To complete the lectures and reading for this section will take you approximately 2 hours. The assignment should take a couple hours more of your time.

Remember, by programming you will learn a lot more than just by reading or watching! Work on the assignments or on something that interests you.
