Not sure this was the best way to learn this. The examples felt a bit dated, and the overall structure was confusing. I needed external resources to make sense of it.

A good introduction. The structure was mostly clear, but I wish there were a few more real-world examples. Still, learned a lot.

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.

Good foundational material. I appreciated the structured approach, although I wish there had been a few more real-world case studies.
