πŸ—“οΈ Week 04 - The Internet, its Protocols and the Web

Theme: Collecting Data

Author

Dr. Jon Cardoso-Silva

You’ve learned to connect and share files between computers over the Internet using the ssh and scp commands. These commands are based on protocols that govern data transfer between computers, and there are other essential protocols to explore.

This lecture will dive into other essential Internet protocols, primarily HTTP and HTTPS, which are fundamental in accessing and interacting with data online. Additionally, we will differentiate between the Internet and the Web, understanding their distinctions and how they work together. Finally, we will see how to use Python to interact and collect data from the Web.
