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.

Solid content and presented clearly. I appreciated the real-world applications shown. Could have used a few more practice opportunities.

Solid course. The examples were relevant, and the structure was easy to follow. Could have used a bit more depth in a couple of areas.

Hmm, I'm not sure this is for absolute beginners. It assumes a bit of prior knowledge that wasn't explicitly taught. Some examples were confusing.

Good material overall. Some parts moved a bit fast for me, but the core concepts were explained well. Useful for building a foundation.
