Overall a good learning experience. The structure made sense, and the examples were relevant, though I felt some topics could have been explored more thoroughly.
Pretty good foundation. The explanations were generally clear, and the structure made sense. I'd say it's a worthwhile course.
Really enjoyed the flow of this. The practical applications discussed were spot on. Great course!
It's a good course if you have some prior knowledge. For absolute beginners, some concepts might be a bit challenging. The structure is logical, though.
